OUR MISSION 


The Sacramento Council of Dog Club's mission is to promote and advance the welfare of American Kennel Club and United Kennel Club purebred and rare-breed dogs through the membership of All-Breed, Specialty and Training Clubs in the following ways:

Promoting:

1. Responsible ownership through education and mentoring.
2. Representation on all dog-related legislation proposed by local and state governments in California.
3. The training required to help owners develop the natural instincts and special attributes of their chosen breed.
4. Educational symposiums on current dog-related topics.
5. Excellent communication between our member clubs.

Providing:

1. An Annual Breed Showcase to increase public awareness of the breeds represented by Council members.
2. In addition to the Council's web site, an annually published Breeders Referral Service (the "Pink Book") as a source for potential dog owners, which is distributed to veterinarians, pet shops and grooming services throughout Northern California.
