Calling All Tricksters

The AKC is offering a new title for your dogs, which would be fun to train for during this winter season indoors. Check out the list of Tricks required and get ready for the spring when we hope to offer a General Meeting session for HVGRC members to earn their AKC TKN and TKI titles. Please see the list of tricks and note that for the TKN title, a previous CGC title will count for 5 of the tricks required to receive this award.
