Please expect a judge change on Sunday May 12th before the entries open. Jeanne Heger is no longer able to judge and we are in the process of hiring and confirming a new judge. With any luck we will have the issue resolved this weekend.

A local veterinary technician is cautioning pet owners as she believes it’s only a matter of time before our area sees a dangerous respiratory illness that impacts dogs.

Update: The board, as much as we would like to offer a match and surrounding activities, the influx of the most recent respiratory virus and the severity of it......raises concerns about the safety for the dogs and puppies in attendance as well as the dogs who live onsite and/or use the facilities on a regular basis. For now, the responsible action is to postpone a match until a match and/or show can be offered outside and away from the regularly used building.

The Canine Flu 2023

By Caroline Coile

When we hear about the canine flu striking dogs at shows we often compartmentalize: those shows were in another state, those dogs were from other breeds. So when reports came of an outbreak of canine flu that seemed to center around the Golden Retriever National in Oregon in September, a lot of people from other breeds and other places ignored it. They shouldn’t.

In brief, the cases that have tested positive have been attributed mostly to the canine flu version that popped up around five or so years ago, H3N2, although some tested positive for both H3N2 and the “older” canine flu strain H3N8. Some dogs have mild cases, some have almost died, and a few have actually died. Although the Golden National has received the most attention, everyone needs to be proactive....continue reading: http://caninechronicle.com/?p=275756

Due to unforeseen circumstances, MWDF is unable to host the December shows. We look forward to seeing you in May 2024! Your entry fees will be refunded via Paypal as soon as the option is available.

Due to recent concerns about a rapidly spreading respiratory disease, Midwest Dog Fanciers has implemented a policy for their shows for the safety of the dogs in attendance and a waiver for the exhibitors:

1. Dogs that are coughing or reported to be coughing are not allowed onsite; they are requested to be taken offsite immediately and not allowed to show.
2. Dogs that have been recently exposed to others coughing and/or dogs with respiratory issues are not allowed onsite.
3. Exhibitors who knowingly bring a dog that is coughing or have been knowingly exposed to other dogs that have recently been ill and/or coughing will not be invited/approved to be at future shows.
4. No refunds for dogs entered who are unable to show or attend due to coughing, illness, or any other issues; see refund policy.
5. Despite taking precautions, there are risks upon entering shows with other dogs. Upon entering the show and/or show grounds, each exhibitor is responsible for their dog(s) should they be exposed to any contagious illnesses.

Midwest Dog Fanciers, Camp Claircrest, PN Management, Claircrest, and/or 4 Paws 4 Love reserve the right to prohibit any dog or handler from attending or participating in their events. In addition, Midwest Dog Fanciers will not be responsible for the actions of others attending despite their efforts to protect the dogs onsite.

By entering the show, the exhibitor understands the above and agrees to comply.
