Lopatin Award 2014

Since our breed went into the Non-Sporting group with AKC on July 2nd, the 2014 Board voted to only accept AKC show points for ranking after the breed was recognized.  The board voted to end all rare breed club points, as of July 1, 2014 to encourage people to show AKC.   AKC ranking points for “Breed” from July 2nd to December 31, 2014 will be rewarded with beautiful crystal cubes to show our appreciation. The Coton with the most points, (combined “Breed” and “All Breed”) receives the 2014 Lopatin Award.
