Handling class, club meetings & Events, and member brags

Need to practice your handling skills? Maybe your dog needs help learning how to free stack or stand for an exam. This is your opportunity to work on the perfect down and back and a smooth go around.

Our handling classes are being held at 2765 Kingsgate Way, Richland, WA 99354, the  4Paws DogWorks training facility at 6:30pm for the months of October, November, January, and February and March. 4Paws requires proof of shots or titer test and rabies for all dogs that are in the facility. If your dog has a current vaccination record on file, no need to bring another. Weather alerts will be posted on the RKC Facebook page, so please like our page to be informed of class cancellation. 

Richland and Walla Walla Kennel Clubs are planning Fast CAT events for 2023. Please check back for more details or visit the Richland Kennel Club Facebook Group to see the posted events. 

If you haven't heard of AKC Fast CAT® and want to learn or if you already know a little something about Fast CAT® I encourage you to check out AKC's webpage to get more details and see if you and your dog are up to the fun. This is great sport for a novice to experienced handlers to do with their dog in a safe environment. If you have any questions, you can email the Club.
