Dog/Puppy Points

The year is coming to an end very quickly.  This is reminder to everyone to please submit your dog/puppy points to me for consideration of yearend awards.

Dog of the Year goes to the dog (over 24 months old) with the most accumulated points from UKC tests during 2013.

Puppy of the Year goes to the dog (up to 24 months old) with the most accumulated points from UKC tests during 2013.

Only UKC Test points count and, while we ask for total lifetime points, only the points earned during 2013 will count toward the yearend award.

You can view the contenders for each award by accessing the Dog and Puppy of the Year Page at http://www.nefhrc.net/club-information/dog-and-puppy-of-the-year-listing/.

The easiest way to submit your dog’s points is to use the form on the Submit Your Dog Points page at http://www.nefhrc.net/club-information/submit-your-dog-points/.

I encourage everyone to please submit your dog/puppy points as soon as practical.

Happy Holidays!!
