DEADLINE INFORMATION - EDITORIAL & ADVERTISING

COONHOUND BLOODLINES is a monthly magazine. The deadline for each issue is always 4:30 Eastern Time on the 1st of the month, one month prior to the respective issue.

For example, the deadline for the July issue would be June 1. (In the event that the deadline falls on a weekend or a holiday for which the UKC office is closed, the deadline will be the first business day after the 1st of the month. For example, when June 1 falls on a Saturday, material will be accepted until 4:30 Eastern Time on Monday, June 3.) Deadlines are strictly followed so that production goes smoothly, which in turn allows COONHOUND BLOODLINES to be mailed on its scheduled mailing date of approximately the 25th of each month.

We strongly recommend sending your editorial and/or ad material 7-10 business days prior to the deadline; Priority Mail or Next Day Air anytime after that to ensure we have your material by deadline. Any editorial and/or ad material received after the deadline will be held over for the next issue.
