When does the membership renew?
Membership is annual and auto-renews on the same date each year. You will receive a reminder before renewal.
Can I cancel?
TODO(jaden): cancellation policy + whether mid-year cancels prorate.
Does the membership cover more than one dog?
TODO(jaden): one membership per handler; profile system supports multiple dogs.
Is the membership the same as a club membership?
TODO(jaden): K9E membership is federation-level; clubs handle their own dues separately.
