The American Kennel Club is the world's oldest and most respected dog registry.  We are proud and privileged to say our dogs have been registered with the AKC's Foundation Stock Service - the first step to full recognition of the breed by that august body.  Russell Terriers became eligible to show at AKC conformation events as a "Miscellaneous" breed on January 1, 2010 - the second step toward full recognition.  Learn more about the AKC and the Foundation Stock program as well as the many other programs, registration benefits, and events offered by clicking this link      http://www.akc.org

Infodog, the AKC show enthusiast's best friend - well, except for his dog - has a wealth of information available at a click.  Here you'll find completely searchable data on nationwide coming shows,  obedience trials, and more.  You'll find complete premium lists in PDF format, judging schedules, a searchable list of licensed judges, and results of past shows.  You can enter a dog show on-line with Dial-n-Entry (for a nominal fee) or even compete on-line  in a "virtual dog show."

The AKC Canine Health Foundation is the world's largest non-profit funder of canine research.  At Crowe's Nest, we feel that the research supported by these funds, especially in the field of genetics, is crucial to the future of dogs everywhere.  That's why we support the organization through our annual membership and through donations.  Visit the AKC Canine Health Foundation at http://www.akcchf.org
