Proposed Change to the AKC Breed Standard have been published in the AKC's September Gazette - the RRCUS Education Committee has put forth recommendations, to address color in our Breed, and establish additional DQs. Per the club's 2nd Vice President, and Chair of the Education committee - these proposed changes were accepted without any objection by the RRCUS Education Committee and Board. These proposed changes are expected to go out to the National Breed Club Membership for a vote after the AKC Review Period.
RRCUS Issues Guidance for Ridge Judging
In April 2024, Our National Breed Club's Education Committee releases a letter for all breeders and judges!
In response to member demand, the RRCUS Education Committee has provided a single page letter to provide additional guidance to breeders and judges on how to properly evaluate desirable and undesirable ridges, and how to correctly identify faulty ridges.
The letter addresses importance of ridge, desirable position, and the need for the correct number of whorls / crowns.
The members of GVFRRC thank our national club's Education Committee for their efforts!
