Once every five years, AKC agility takes suggestions from the peanut gallery. It is that time again and if you want to suggest something now is the time. The following can be found at https://www.akc.org/sports/agility/news-updates/
Introducing the 2018 Advisory Committee
Five years have flown by and it’s time once again to bring together an Advisory Committee. The Advisory Committee members for 2018 are:
Sherry Jefferson, PA
Linda Kipp, NM
Terry LeClair, CA
Linda Robertson, TN
Lori Sage, OR
These five will be taking an in-depth look at ways to improve the AKC agility program. Representing different areas of the country and a wide variety of breeds (Pembroke Welsh Corgis, Border Collies, Shelties, Doberman Pinschers, Labradors, Cardigan Corgis, Chihuahua, Chinese Crested, and German Shepherd), the committee has a vast array of experiences to draw from when they discuss the future of AKC agility. They will be discussing all suggestions for rule changes to improve our sport. Please be a part of guiding the direction of AKC agility by preparing your suggestions; exhibitor input is vital to our system.Suggestions will be taken through August 31, 2018.

You have until the end of the month to get your suggestions submitted. I have a few in mind.
