Membership has its privileges! As a member of the C.O.A., you will receive the Chinook Quarterly - the quarterly publication of the C.O.A. (see sample CQ at bottom of this page) - a membership directory to help you find other Chinook owners, information on Chinook events like the annual Chinook Specialty and you will be entitled to have you own site in our on-line membership directory so you can show off your dogs! You do not have to own a Chinook to join! We have many "Chinook Friends" in our membership.

In addition to membership, the COA also offers special services to Chinook breeders and stud owners. "Member Breeders" are entitled to be listed on our Breeder's Page on the website, will receive referrals from our Dogs USA ad and will be entitled to list all studs on our Stud Page. If you aren't a breeder but have a stud you want to advertise, you can list your stud on the COA Stud Page for a fee. The fee entitles you to post two photos of your stud and any information you want to post, including pedigree, health and titles. Any U.K.C. or C.O.A. registered stud can be listed.

Please consider making an additional donation to the C.O.A. Your donations will go to help sponsor our rescue program and other C.O.A. activities.
