Thank you for visiting the Gig Harbor Kennel Club. We are a non-profit, all-breed dog club that incorporated in 1982. Our primary objective is to do all in our power to protect and further the interests of all breeds of pure-bred dogs and to encourage sportsmanlike competition at all dog events. To that end, we sponsor many dog-centered activities
each year. We have an All-Breed dog show
accompanied by a Rally competition and an
Obedience Trial every year.
We hold an AKC sponsored
match every summer, and a three day Agility
trial. You can find out more about these activities in the
Events section of our website.
We offer classes for
Learning/Honing Handling Skills and Puppy Socialization on a weekly basis,
and more intense, 8 week intensive
Handling Seminars are offered on an
as-needed basis.
One of our major projects is the
donation of dog food to our local
Gig Harbor FISH Food Bank
so all family members- even the four legged ones- are helped!
Canine Good Citizen Test. Offered
annually in conjunction with our All Breed Dog Show and occasionally throughout
the year. A variety of tests assess
your dog's confidence and control. This program embraces both pure-bred dogs and
mixed-breed dogs to ensure our favorite canine companions can be respected
members of our community.
Public Education. We strive to have an
educational program open to the community at each monthly membership meeting.
Topics are anything dog-related that someone expresses interest in that we can
get a speaker for. A variety of programs are available that promote
responsible dog ownership.
Community Involvement Members
have visited many schools and nursing homes in the past. We are open to requests
or new suggestions to broaden the scope of exposure.
Club Meetings are open to everyone interested in purebred
dogs. Please join us the 3rd Thursday of every month at 7:30
pm. Contact us for the
location if it is not posted. Please check here for
past minutes.
