COA Membership
Membership has its privileges! As a member of the COA, you will receive the Chinook Quarterly (CQ) publication (see sample CQ), a membership directory to help you find other Chinook owners, and information on Chinook events like the annual Chinook Specialty. You are also invited to join the COA-L, a discussion group exclusively for COA members. During the first half of 2011, we will be introducing an extensive online archive of historical information in the members-only section of this website. You may also have your own listing in our on-line membership directory, where 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. Breeders may be listed on our Breeder's Page for a fee. They 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 modest fee.
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.
