Cathi Blackburn

I have been involved in a number of dog clubs over the years and have served as an officer in most of them. Most of them were local and one is National. I have 
chaired dog events over the years – national specialties, specific events within 
national specialties, local clubs’ trials, and hunt tests (both chaired and served as 
secretary). Currently I am the President of the Central Kentucky Retriever Club 
and am the Editor of a National Club’s magazine. I consider myself organized and 
am motivated to work toward the betterment of a club. To give back to the sport I became an AKC Hunt Test Judge in 2016 and Field Trial Judge (minor stakes) in 2023. 
 
I have been interested and entertained by dogs my entire life having been given 
my first, a Collie, at the age of three. I acquired my first registered dog in 1988 
and the competition and training bug bit hard. That first dog, a Belgian Tervuren, 
and I obtained titles in agility, conformation, obedience, tracking and even a 
Schutzhund endurance title. My adventures in hunt tests began with my first 
Labrador Retriever in 2001. I now own a Labrador Retriever and a Belgian 
Malinois.
 
In my professional life I was an art professor and I create drawings and paintings.
