Lets Save UKC Dog Sports
The UKC Dog Sport Program was developed to highlight
the inherited working abilities of our companion dogs. For
centuries, dogs have acted as companions and as
guardians over home, family and livestock. These natural
tendencies are channeled and focused in the UKC Dog
Sport events. Starting with the most basic Family
Obedience program and advancing through more difficult
levels of training, dogs are evaluated as companions and
as protectors of home and hearth.
