What People are saying about NADAC:

Junior Handler

My 13-year old daughter participated in the NADAC Agility trial at the Quad Cities Dog Center this weekend (July 28 & 29, 2018). Jeff Riedl was the judge on both days.

This was our very first NADAC agility trial. She has been participating in the 4-H fair for two years (in the dog project) and really really enjoys dog training! She is not a volleyball girl, or a basketball girl, or a swimming girl. She does not participate in chess club, or Spanish club or future leaders of America. She is an animal lover & a dog trainer. And this event was magical (for both of us)! Thank you SO much for supporting the junior members in NADAC and the caring judges that make it FUN for our youth. You all play a part (behind the scenes administrative staff, coordinators, judges, etc) in making memories for these participants and their dog companions!

I would imagine (if your career field is anything like mine) you usually hear from the participants that are not pleased with outcomes (for whatever reason). So I wanted to make sure you heard from this Mom, YOU ARE APPRECIATED!

I wanted to send a quick note on how wonder the Dogs On Q agility group hosts their NADAC trials. I have participated in their trials a little over a year now and enjoy the hospitality. The group members do their best to welcome new and returning competitors at each event. They take the time to help new volunteers and make sure they aren’t overwhelmed.
The welcoming and fun environment Dogs On Q has established for their trials makes the time and expense to attend worthwhile.
