Dogs in Canada reviewing partnership proposals, pushing back against imitators

The Canadian Kennel Club has received several proposals to partner on a revived Dogs in Canada magazine and its associated Annual. But for now, it is apparently dealing with outsiders who are intent on poaching their lucrative breeder listings and it has posted a note on its website that approaches to breeders for 2013 listings are confusing the market and is "not us and it's not the new Dogs in Canada Annual".

"So, to end the confusion and to be perfectly clear, it is the intention of the CKC to produce a new Dogs in Canada magazine and Dogs in Canada Annual! We are currently reviewing and encouraged by proposals received from big-name players in the Canadian publishing industry, as well as highly-targeted “boutique” companies noted for their expertise with specialty and well-known niche publications. Once our partner has been chosen, we will communicate our advertising information to all interested parties for the 2013 publications."
