Florida Gulf Coast Dachshund Club
The Florida Gulf Coast Dachshund Club was established over 35 years ago and is dedicated to the health, welfare, betterment, and improvement of the Dachshund breed. Our members actively participate in AKC conformation (“dog shows”), obedience, agility, field trial, tracking, Earthdog, Rally, Dock Diving, Barn Hunt, and lure coursing events. In addition to American Kennel Club events, we participate in community activities such as Responsible Dog Owners’ Day, our Dachshunds visit schools and health facilities, and members assist in Dachshund rescue.
Monthly Meetings
We meet via Zoom on the 4th Tuesday of each month. We get together to chat at 7 p.m. and our official meeting begins at 7:30. Come as you are! For a meeting link, please contact Corresponding Secretary, Heather With at hwith02@yahoo.com
