American Bloodhound Club. Why does it not surprise me that they do not have agility?

I represent the American Bloodhound Club. Yes we do have an annual National Specialty which rotates across our six regional club geography. This year it is being held in Eureka, Mo. As for performance events we offer obedience, tracking and trailing. Generally obedience is one half day. Due to the nature of tracking and trailing (Laying trails, etc) usually takes place the three days prior to sweepstakes and conformation. All new members need two sponsors who are in good standing with the ABC. They will be automatically approved if not contested and will have a full membership. We do not have a non-voting membership. Hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else. Mary Lou
