MASKS ARE HERE!
                      Follow Poppy the Bichon Frise’s example to lead a safe lifestyle! Show your friends and family that you care about their health and well- being, while also protecting purebred dogs and dog sports.
AKC Political Action Committee (AKC PAC) face masks help pro- tect you and your rights as a dog owner. Masks are available for a $12 donation to the AKC PAC.
100% of your contribution to the AKC PAC goes directly to elect- ing dog-friendly legislative candidates.
PLUS! Send us a picture of yourself wearing the mask with your dog. We’ll feature it on social media and other media platforms.
Minimum donation: $12.00

SUPPORT THE AKC PAC
The American Kennel Club has taken the lead in supporting leg- islation across the country that protects the rights of responsible dog owners. The AKC Political Action Committee gives us an additional tool with which to interface with legislators. Through this non-partisan PAC, we can demonstrate a unity of purpose that helps us advance a positive legislative agenda.
The AKC PAC collects voluntary contributions from individuals and uses these donations to support candidates who defend dog own- ers’ rights and can effectively influence legislation impacting animal owners. Your donation will be pooled with contributions from AKC club members across the country to strengthen our support for reason- able, enforceable laws that protect the health and welfare of purebred dogs and do not restrict the rights of breeders and owners who take their responsibilities seriously.
Contributions to this fund are not deductible on federal tax returns. Federal law requires us to use our best efforts to collect and report the name, mailing address, occupation and name of employer of individuals whose contributions exceed $200 in a calendar year.* The maximum annual contribution to the AKC PAC is $5,000. All contributions are voluntary.
