Kind of a slow time of the year for me. One of the reasons I started this project in the Spring of 2013 doing premiums for trials beginning in June. Currently, the only premiums that I am looking for are over a week away from their due date. Here are a couple of highlights.
AKC day of show preferred/regular change
Starting 2/1/2017 if you were measured by a VMO or a Field Representative into a jump height other that what you were entered in, you have the option to change your Regular/Preferred status. The AKC has received some questions about it and the Trial Secretary and Judges blogs have posted some clarification.

Obedience Club of Daytona trial date change
The Obedience Club of Daytona has moved their trial a week earlier to 1/19/2018. This weekend was formerly occupied by the Palm Bay Agility Club which moved their trial a week earlier to move the trial to Fort Pierce. OCOD has retained the original opening date (8/28) and moved the closing date a week earlier (1/4). I think the original weekend was a race weekend and thus the early opening date to encourage early accommodation reservations.
