I am interested in tracking, how do I begin?

You do not have to be a club member in order to be part of the tracking group.  If you live in the Spokane area, members of Spokane Dog Training Club are willing to help you get started.  Fill out the "Contact Us" form and someone will contact you.

 

What are some good books about tracking?

There are several good books including:  Tracking Dog, Theory & Methods by Glen Johnson (out of print but sometimes located in libraires); Enthusiastic Tracking by William (Sil) Sanders; Tracking From The Ground Up by Sandy Ganz and Susan Boyd; Go Find by L. Wilson Davis.

 

What do I have to do in order to enter a tracking test?

Get a copy of the Tracking Regulations from the American Kennel Club and make sure that your dog is able to complete a track as described.  You then need to have your dog certified by a tracking judge.  You then send that certification, along with your entry form, to the secretary listed on the premium list.

 

How do I get a copy of the Tracking Regulations?

Single copies of all AKC rules and regulations are free.  To request a copy, write: The American Kennel Club, 5580 Centerview Drive, Raleigh, NC 27606-3390.

 

How do I get my dog certified?

Go online to http://www.akc.org and search for tracking judges under "Events".  Contact a judge in your area and ask them to certify your dog.

 

How do I find tracking tests and secretary contact information?
