Proposal of the Group Realignment Committee            
 The American Kennel Club Board of Directors voted to accept and approve the report of the Group Realignment Committee. The rule changes necessary to implement going from 7 to 11 groups will be read at the December, 2011 Delegate Meeting for a vote in March, 2011. The final decision on assigning breeds rests with the AKC Board, which will consider the input of the breed parent clubs. If adopted, these changes would become effective in 2015.

LOST IRISH WOLFHOUND IN KNOXVILLE AREA
IW owner Jesi Goodman's Lucy is 3 y.o. and spayed. Owner is wheelchair bound from tragic car accident a yr. ago where 5 y.o. daughter died. Lucy means everything to her and was kept in the house all the time. Lucy was being cared for by friends who lived behind the Wiegels in Karns on Oakridge Hwy. in Knoxville on 12/16/11, an hour and a half from where she lives normally, when she shot out the front door & would not come back. She was spotted 1 week ago on Sat. & Sun. crossing Oak Ridge Hwy. a busy road, in the Karns area. Lucy is a little shy w/people she doesn't know but great w/other dogs, loves food & treats.
