Who all belongs to a kennel club?

I'm thinking of joining one. Do they tend to be clickish? What do you feel that the benefits are?

There are two of them in my area, I'm going to try out both of them before I join. And then there is a Companion dog club, that teaches agility. I don't think they do the conformation. I guess it is companion dogs vs show dogs.

The Companion club is a little more expensive on their training fees, so I thought I'd get the basic obedience out of the way through the kennel club.

I don't belong to a club, as unfortunatley there aren't any near me. However I do think it sounds like great fun, not just for Ollie and Chachi, but also for yourself.

I would go and try it out, and see what you think, i wouldn't worry too much about clicks, as i find at most group activities nowadays, people are always in clicks worse luck

I think the benefits would mainly be socialising your babies and having them acheive something, you might also make some good friends along the way, and enhance your knowledge on dogs in general good luck
