2025 Membership Sign Up
The Membership Renewal period has officially closed, but we’re excited to welcome both new and returning members!
To join (or rejoin) the AWPGA, you'll need a sponsor — someone who can support your application and is a current member in good standing. Ms. Sheryl Dierenfield, our Membership Committee Chair, is here to help you find a sponsor if you need one. Your breeder can also sponsor you if they are an AWPGA member in good standing.
Once you have your sponsor, you’ll be ready to complete the membership application and submit your payment. From there, your application will be provisional while awaiting approval by the AWPGA Board. The Board meets once a month, so the approval process may take up to 30 days.
We’re looking forward to having you as part of the AWPGA community!

Member Interest Survey
We'd love to learn more about your interests, skills, and talents. This helps us better connect you with opportunities in the club and build a stronger community. We also encourage members to get involved — whether it's helping with events, committees, or special projects.
Thank you for taking a few minutes to complete the survey and for being part of the AWPGA!
