Overview

Mission

The annual dog show is held to educate the public with examples of virtually all pure breed dogs, showing relative temperaments, grooming, etc., answering the public's questions and thereby fostering the proper care of dogs.

What it reported doing in 2024

The annual dog show (Harvest Moon Classic) was held in October 2024 and was very well attended. The 5 day show had over 8500 dogs and 150 breeds. Information is available throughout the show to inform and educate the public about the different breeds, temperament and handling.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 100% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Program spending has declined or grown slowly and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
