ADBA Canine Quarterly OUR FRONT COVER We were excited to see two teenage girls with their American Bulldogs competing in the Salt Lake Terrier Association fun show. This was the first time we had seen them and their excitement in being there was evident. The dogs they brought were well mannered; you could tell they spent a lot of time working with them. Since their dogs weren’t ADBA registered and were spayed &/or neutered, they applied for our Limited Performance Program (LPP) and it worked well for them. They had a lot of fun and it was enjoyable to see high school students with an interest in competing in activities with their dogs through the ADBA fun shows and sanctioned events. Gabrielle and Trinity are now members of the SLTA club and we appreciate their contributions.
