NEW! April 2013 - AKC GOODDOG! HELPLINE

The American Kennel Club is launching a new initiative designed to promote dog training and encourage more dog owners to pursue dog sports with their canine companions.

The AKC® GoodDog!SM Helpline will offer telephone support to new dog owners. Trainers will staff the phone line and offer advice on teaching good manners and basic obedience. They also will relay the importance of taking their dog to a training club for a group class so their new puppy or dog gets the benefit of socialization and working with a dog training professional.

Callers will be directed to the AKC Training Club directory on the AKC website.

The GoodDog! Helpline is launching in April 2013 and will operate from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. ET Monday through Friday and noon to 6 p.m. ET Saturday. Owners subscribe to the service, which is good for the life of the dog, at a cost of $79.99. There will be special promotional pricing for owners at the time of on-line AKC registration.

The AKC GoodDog! Helpline is another way that the American Kennel Club promotes responsible dog ownership and contributes to helping dogs be good citizens in their homes and communities.

For more information about the new service, visit the AKC GoodDog! Helpline web page.

Are you a dog person? Experienced, or just beginning? Then JOIN THE CLUB! For more information on joining ICCKC, contact us at our email address located on the bottom of this page, or go to the Club Purpose and Membership page. Dog clubs abound with dog lovers who share common interests of raising, training, breeding, and competing.

Gain Knowledge - Dog club members are knowledgeable about canine nutrition, health, training, and development. A dog club is the place to meet experts on your breed of dog, learn the fine art of showing your dog, participating in agility, obedience, rally, and many other dog events.

Contribute to Your Community - Dog clubs strive to promote and protect dogs in their communities. Club members teach responsible dog ownership by sponsoring training classes, offering responsible breeder locator services, and by participating in rescue networks. They monitor and provide input for legislation governing responsible dog ownership.

If you watch the AKC/Eukanuba Invitational or the Westminster dog shows on TV, you may get the impression that only rich people in fancy clothes with fancy dogs can be part of the dog show world. Nothing could be further from the truth!! You can choose to participate at any level of involvement or expense that suits you. Come to our meetings and events - meet our members to see the real world of dogs and dog shows.
