The Wampanoag Kennel Club has been in existence as a dog club since 1955. The main goal of the Club is to promote knowledge of and service to dogs. The Club conducts obedience and conformation classes, in addition to performing public service. The classes are designed to assist in the training of all dogs, including the family pets. Our goal is to make your dog a better companion for your family.

PUBLIC SERVICE

To promote a better understanding of dogs, throughout the year the Wampanoag Kennel Club conducts meetings and seminars, which are open to the public, where you can obtain information on your specific breed. The general meetings are held the first Tuesday of each month on Jenkins Street in New Bedford at the training hall. The club does not meet in January, July and August.

The Club holds an annual AKC show and trial where dogs of all breeds, shapes and sizes are exhibited. Any dog you might be interested in will be there for you to see. And, you can talk to breeders, so that you can learn more about the breeds. Sanctioned matches are also held at various times of the year. Matches are informal, and it is a great opportunity to talk to dog owners about the various types of breeds and find out what breed would match your lifestyle.

The Club participates in a Breeders' Referral Service which is comprised of the better-known kennel clubs throughout the New England states. The service will place interested buyers in contact with reputable breeders where you may purchase a quality puppy. Puppies purchased through reputable breeders come with the knowledge that the breeder will be a resource to you as the puppies grows. These breeders are committed to the puppies that they produce and are a valuable resource to new puppy owners.
