NOMINATE A JUNIOR FOR THE PRESIDENT’S SPORTSMAN AWARD

Competitive dog sports have been in existence for more than 140 years, largely in part due to the competitors’ strong commitment to sportsmanship and a welcoming, respectful culture that embraces the diverse community united by a love of dogs.

The American Kennel Club will present the President’s Sportsman Award to recognize a Junior who has gone above and beyond, consistently exhibiting the core values in the AKC Code of Sportsmanship and Civility. Juniors may be competing in any AKC sport or events, including Junior Showmanship, Obedience, Scent Work, Agility, and more.

An independent selection committee will name one junior recipient. The honoree will be invited to attend the AKC National Championship Presented by Royal Canin, held in Orlando, Florida this December, where the awards will be formally conferred.
