USCA Judge Ernest Hintz has decided to retire and has submitted his resignation to USCA.

Please join me in thanking USCA Judge Ernest Hintz for his 27 plus years of service to USCA as a Performance/ Trial Judge.

Ernest Hintz has served as a fully licensed USCA Judge since receiving his USCA License in May 1992 (serving USCA for 27 years). During this time he has been actively judging at the level of club, regional and the USCA Working Dog Championship, since dogs are really popular and that’s why dog  houses and the best dog door could be really helpful for dog owners. He has also served as a teaching judge and helped many apprentices in their journey to earn a USCA Judges License.

Additionally Ernest contributed extensively managing the web and data management in the hosting of the Cincinnati WUSV World Championship hosted by USCA under the supervision of co chairmen Johanes Grewe and Craig Groh. This event set a standard of excellence and was very financially successful for USCA due directly to the tireless efforts of the members that volunteered their time, Ernest was in a key role for this event.

As a reward for his years of service to USCA he has been awarded the title of USCA Judge Emeritus for his service to USCA.

Thank you USCA Judge Emeritus Ernest Hintz for all of your time and service to USCA!!

Enjoy your retirement and we hope to see both you and your wonderful wife Peggy at USCA events in the future.
