DEAR EXHIBITORS, We are all people who share an abiding interest in our dogs and in participating in the world of the Dog Fancy. Some of us are only exhibitors and some only volunteers, but many of us are both. At the Alberta Kennel Club we are proud of our more than one hundred year record of service to the Fancy. At all times it is our intention to give you the best Dog Show that we possibly can. We need to speak about respect for one another and while understanding the pressures on both the Exhibitor and the Volunteer; we believe we all can do better. Dog Shows offer us an opportunity to meet and to compete ideally in a supportive environment. Dog Shows need organizers and participants but if we cannot find common ground, then the organizers will leave and participants will have nowhere to compete. Rude and disrespectful behavior can’t be tolerated on either side. If we have erred, please let us know. We will listen to concerns that are reasonably and politely expressed and will fix what we can. It is not our intention to upset you. What we will not tolerate is behaviour that is in contravention of civil behaviour or our expressed requests, such as pick up your dog’s feces, don’t park where not permitted, leave your benching space as clean as you found it, don’t raise your voice in anger etc., etc. You know, all the things we learned from our parents about how to get along in life. The Alberta Kennel Club will have zero tolerance for rude language or bad behaviour and will invite disruptive people to leave the Show and no refunds will be offered. Thank you, The Alberta Kennel Club Show Committee

OSTEOPATHY / CRANIOSACRAL THERAPY TREATMENTS

Dr. Laura Taylor DVM

August 2 – 4th, 2019 9 am – 4 pm

Osteopathy is a type of manual therapy that restores normal mobility to all the joints and internal tissues and organs of the body. The end result is optimum posture, balanced symmetry of movement, greater stride length, etc.

A dog does not need to have a mobility problem to benefit from an osteopathic treatment. A great moving dog will move even better! The majority of joint restrictions often come from nerve changes from organs…this is why chiropractic can be very temporary.

It is very common to have subtle tension in the prostate/ovaries/uterus be a cause of loss of some symmetry in the pelvis thus affecting mobility. 30 minute treatment sessions - Show Special $90.00
