FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SportDOG® Brand, an industry-leading manufacturer of electronic dog-training products and accessories, recently renewed its support of California Waterfowl’s mission to grow the state’s waterfowl populations, wetlands and hunter-conservationist communities.

“We appreciate the commitment of SportDOG Brand to California hunters, wetland restoration and new-hunter recruitment,” said Scott Mueller, CWA vice president for fund and membership development. “It’s encouraging to have companies like SportDOG partner with us as we focus on our mission and fight on behalf of our membership and all hunters.”

SportDOG® Brand Director Darrell Douglas said there’s nothing better than “working with groups made up of like-minded hunters and conservationists who are serious about improving habitat for future generations to enjoy.”

“We're especially proud to be affiliated with such a successful organization,” he said. 
Corporate partnership with California Waterfowl demonstrates publicly that a company shares a commitment to waterfowl, wetland conservation and to the future of hunting.

SportDOG has been a longtime sponsor of California Waterfowl magazine’s “Canine Corner” column that appears in each issue. The column explores effective sporting-dog training, dog health and safety topics. Top trainers such as Tom Dokken, Charlie Jurney and Josh Miller regularly contribute their experience and expertise to the column.

Douglas said the theme of the SportDOG Conservation Fund is to lend support to conservation efforts “for the birds 20 years out of range.”

“That that meshes perfectly with the efforts of CWA,” he said.
