Chinook News From Past Days
Feb 2021: CCA is Proud to Announce that Kathleen Riley's Article & Photography Entitled "The Scent of a “Fox” is in the February Issue of the AKC Gazette!!
Check out the article by CCA members, KJ Krammes and Shelly Londer on the history of the Chinook Breed in the October/November issue 2021 of the Working Dog/Herding Dog Digest!
We'd like to give a special shout-out to Company A 1-169th Aviation Regiment, currently in Kosovo. During Vietnam, a Chinook named Charger was attached to the "Winged Warriors". Military dogs both assist and protect our service members while providing affection and moments of laughter.
