Trick Dog Evaluations
Bring your Portuguese Water Dog to participate not only in the K9 gift exchange, but to participate in Trick Dog evaluation and earn a title! Trick Dog evaluations will be done by Kelly Liedtke.
Cost: $5.00 per dog
Limit: 2 dogs per household
Show off your PWD’s tricks and earn a Trick Dog title! There are five AKC Trick Titles you and your PWD can earn. For those just starting out, for the AKC Novice Trick Dog title, your dog performs 10 skills from the Novice list. If your dog has a Canine Good Citizen (CGC) certificate or title on record at AKC, it can do 5 Novice tricks (CGC + 5) to earn the Novice title.
See more title information on the AKC site.
To receive a title, you will need to submit to the AKC a copy of the Tricks Checklist, AKC Trick Dog Title Application, and $20 payment to the AKC.
Deadline: register by Monday, November 26, 2018. Day-of-entry evaluations will be taken only if time is available. Don’t miss out!

When turning onto the gravel lane from 222nd Street SE, drive SLOWLY all the way down the lane until you come to the end; the driveway forks. Take the left branch of the fork onto Bark Ave and you’re there! Drive SLOW!
