Dog show season is in full swing and it's been great seeing all of the nice wins by our members in conformation as well as performance. Also hats off to our juniors, great job all of you keep it up. The National is coming soon and I know the team has been working hard putting it together. Everyone be safe as you travel there and have lots of fun. It's almost election time so if you feel like you want to get more involved or run for an office or head a committee please drop a line to our secretary. Jeremy McClister President AMTC NOTES FROM THE NEWSLETTER EDITOR Rick and I are very sad we can’t go to the National this year. We know it’s going to be awesome. We are SO very blessed to have such beautiful animal companions, amazing friendships and mentors, active (and often unappreciated and unsung) volunteers, and just all around genuine sportsmanship in our Manchester group. Rick and I could have never imagined when we got our little “pet” Cricket eight years ago how truly rich and expansive our life would become because of “just one little dog”. I am also so thankful I get to give back to all of you and our beautiful breed through editing our newsletter, and sincerely appreciate all of the wonderful contributions to its’ success. Safe travels to all of you, and please send lots and lots of pictures for those of us missing you!
