We are one of Canada’s oldest continually operated kennel clubs, run by a dedicated volunteer membership committed to the betterment and welfare of purebred dogs. We promote responsible breeding, informed ownership, and high standards of canine health and temperament through education, events, and community outreach.
Home to the AKC Summer Classic—Canada’s largest outdoor dog show—we bring together competitors, judges, breeders, and dog lovers from around the world to celebrate excellence in conformation, performance, and companionship. Our work supports breeders, handlers, and owners with resources, advocacy, and opportunities to showcase and improve canine quality for current and future generations.
