🌈 True Colors Classic Judge Spotlight 🌈

We're excited to welcome McKenzie Minto to the judging team for the 2026 UKI True Colors Classic!

McKenzie brings a passion for the sport and a deep appreciation for the unique culture that makes UKI so special. Her courses challenge teams to think, adapt, and rise to the occasion while keeping the partnership between handler and dog at the heart of the experience.

When asked what she enjoys most about judging UKI, McKenzie shared:

💜 *“My favorite thing about judging UKI is getting to witness the friendly yet fierce culture among the competitors. I love that UKI competitors are invigorated by the opportunity to take on unique challenges and always find a positive takeaway regardless of their result.”*

That spirit of embracing challenges, supporting one another, and celebrating growth is exactly what the True Colors Classic is all about.

Join us July 10–12 at Run Wild Dog Sports in Auburn, WA for an unforgettable weekend of agility, community, and fun!

Registration is open for the UKI True Colors Classic!

✨ True Colors Classic Spotlight: Ashley Deacon ✨

One of the things that makes the True Colors Classic so exciting is the energy, challenge, and joy that great UKI courses can bring out in a team.

Ashley Deacon shared what he loves most about judging UKI:

“My favorite thing about judging UKI is seeing handlers and their dogs have fun on course, especially when they tackle a challenge that they were not expecting to succeed at. I enjoy sharing the thrill and emotions with the teams as they take on a challenging course!”

That is exactly the kind of spirit we are looking forward to throughout the True Colors Classic — teams taking on challenges, celebrating those unexpected wins, and enjoying the thrill of running together.

We can’t wait for a weekend full of great courses, big smiles, and those special “we did it!” moments. 🌈🐾

🎉 Huge congratulations to Krissy and MagiK, a Run Wild Dog Sports student team, on earning their International Championship 2 (IAC2) title! 🏆✨

Your hard work, dedication, teamwork, and commitment to excellence in agility have paid off in a big way. Watching this team grow and achieve such an impressive milestone has been truly inspiring.

We are incredibly proud of all you've accomplished and can't wait to see what goals you conquer next. Congratulations on this well-deserved achievement, Krissy and MagiK! 🎊🐾💙

🌧️⛈️ Agility Trial Update – This Weekend! 🐾🐾

Due to the recent rain, we’ve had to move this weekend’s agility trial from one arena to the other and will now be running in the Zanee Arena.
With the venue change, the courses needed to be redesigned to fit the new space. We are incredibly grateful to Ashley Deacon for stepping in and helping us redesign the courses on short notice. A huge thank you as well to Gracie Huffman, who is still designing our exciting Master Series courses!
We feel very fortunate to be able to host this trial despite the weather challenges, and we appreciate everyone's flexibility and support. We’re looking forward to a fun weekend of great runs, great dogs, and great company.
🐕✨ Safe travels, and we can’t wait to see you all there! ✨🐕
