Proposal:

• To establish a Specialty Club for all breeds in Group 7.
• To host one Specialty conformation show and one obedience trial each year on a rotating basis. The provinces being New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
• To host the Specialty in conjunction with an all-breed club in one of the provinces.

Purpose:

• Reverse the trend of dwindling entries to numerous conformation show and obedience trials in the Maritimes.
• Begin with a conformation show and obedience trial hosted in conjunction with an area club.
• As this club becomes established, we will progress to other activities such as agility, herding tests & trials, and fly ball.
• Establish a Breeders Directory
• Encourage and support breeder education and sound breeding practices as recommended by the Canadian Kennel Club.
• Be an active and visible presence in the community as role models of responsible dog ownership for Individuals, Municipalities, Provinces and the National level:
• Pet Therapy by doing hospital / nursing home visitations.
• Public Education through mall presentations with information handouts.
• Encourage newcomers to become involved in CKC events through formal (shows & trials) and informal (fun matches / education / social events) activities.
• Encourage and foster friendship with others with similar interests and to explore more ways to have fun with our dogs.

• Establish a fully functional club with an elected executive, a constitution and code of ethics; a slate of committees to plan and execute the proposed objectives of the club in accordance with the membership's collective goals.
• Documentation of all activities in accordance with the requirements of the Canadian Kennel Club.
