Welcome to the website for the
2012 ABTC National Specialty!

We're looking forward to a fabulous week of conformation and performance events and the gracious hospitality provided by our hosts at the Marina Inn and Marina Conference Center.

Although the precise geographic center of the United States is a few hundred miles to the south you'll find us at the place where Nebraska, Iowa and South Dakota come together, on a bluff overlooking the Missouri River where everything you need for the perfect National Specialty is within easy reach. Conformation and sweepstakes, obedience and rally, agility, honor and rescue parades, the two-miler road race, vendors and indoor grooming w/electrical hook-ups are all on-site. Head south to Gaylen Glen Farm for the Specialty herding trial; or just a few miles away to Hillview Recreation Area and McCook Lake SD for tracking events, and Briar Cliff University for VST.

You can be an even bigger part of our success in 2012 by supporting our events, shopping for specialty items, contributing to the trophy fund, submitting a catalog ad and volunteering to help on a Committee. Look around on the website for ways to get involved!

East, west, north or south - all roads lead to the Marina Inn. Plan now to join us for the 2012 ABTC National Specialty. We look forward to seeing you there!
