Congrats everyone!!

Thank you, thank you, thank you to all who came out to our October JCAC Trial this past weekend. What a super group of competitors and volunteers!!! We survived two days of MAJOR wind (Friday and Saturday) and then rain on Sunday! And did it all with a smile, a cheer and a lot of "I can do that's" Those fields were cleared in record time!

Thank you Mark Buehl for bringing us some challenging...but doable courses! Lots of cheering as competitors figured out their teamwork" formula and conquered the courses!

Special congratulations go out to our new NATCHes

Sue Boe and Higgins...NATCH 3
Cindy Sandstrom and Whiz...VNATCH 1
Lisa Esquivel and Rip....NATCH 1
Beth Skoff and Archie...NATCH and VNATCH 5

Our next trial is NATCHAPALOOZA....the Friday through Sunday after Thanksgiving. You can find the premium at https://www.jumpingchollas.com/trials-events

Plus the debut of our new logo on lots of merch!

Starting in January 2027, NADAC will be TESTING a 16in/40cm wide Dog Walk, ONLY at a select few NADAC Office Hosted Trials (PNW/MT/WY) and Four Seasons/Up and Over Dog Sports trials (Western NY). This is ONLY TESTING…. There are NOT CURRENTLY any plans to implement a wider DW, we simply need to do some real-world testing before any “next steps” can be planned or taken…

The January Up and Over Dog Sports trial (Buffalo, NY), where Jimmy will be Judging, will be the first trial to use a 16” test DW!

We do believe wider is the most logical safety upgrade and 40cm/16in aligns with what other countries are pushing toward, so that is where we will start.

ALL trials, that will have a 16” Test DW, will VERY CLEARLY state it in the Premium so exhibitors will know ahead of time.
