Author, Reader, and Photo Contributions
The Alpenhorn Editor considers manuscripts at any time. Please be aware that authors/photographers do not receive financial compensation for manuscripts/photographs (minimum 300 DPI at the size to be printed before any altering) that are accepted for publication and that submission does not guarantee publication. Manuscripts are subject to editing. Photos will be credited.
BMDCA members are the primary audience for The Alpenhorn, but our readership includes many non-members who are fanciers of the Bernese Mountain Dog. The readership is international. The language used is formal written American English.
Article Topics, Length, and Level
In general, manuscripts should be 500 to 800 words. While we have pet owners as readers, this is a breed publication. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the sport of dogs, adult canine and puppy health, training, conformation, performance and working activities, junior participation, therapy work, nutrition, breed history, the international dog scene, genetics, breeding, and judging. We seek articles that introduce, educate, explain, integrate, and entertain.
Deadline for Contributions
Manuscripts can be submitted for consideration at any time. Manuscripts that have been accepted for publication by the Editor must have been received by TheAlpenhorn Editor two (2) months prior to the first day of the month in which the edited article is to appear (i.e., December 1st for the February issue; February 1st for the April issue; April 1st for the June issue; June 1st for the August issue; August 1st for the October issue; and October 1st for the December issue). Additional information is available at www.bmdca.org.
