    NEW IN 2026: PWDCA National Specialty, AKC National Championship, and Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show judges will receive a complimentary hard copy of The Courier (in prior years judges had access via digital copy).

    NOTE:  There will not be a post-Specialty issue as in previous years.  Coverage of the 2026 PWDCA National Specialty will fall to the 2027 Annual edition.  This decision was not taken lightly.  There are many challenges with producing a Specialty issue: 1) Collecting statistics, commentary, photos, etc. is difficult and time consuming; this usually causes delays in publication.  2) If the issue is not in the mail prior to December, bulk mailing is caught up in the USPS' holiday mailing frenzy.  The many challenges garnered significant member complaints.  Thus, in reviewing how The Courier can continue to be printed in a hard copy format for our members, it was decided for cost savings reasons, in combination with production challenges, to discontinue a dedicated Specialty issue.  For now we will focus on the above publication schedule and adjust based on financial resources and member feedback.  .
