CKC trials
The Nanaimo Kennel Club offers two CKC obedience trial weekends annually:
- June: four trials in conjunction with our June conformation show
- November: four trials as a stand-alone event in the Centennial building
Entries into CKC trials must be completed at least two weeks in advance of the trial. Event premiums are usually available on our website once they are open for entry,usually one month or so before the trial date. Closing dates for entries is always listed in the premium list.
Recently we have added online entries for our November trials. Dogs not registered with the CKC must either have an event registration number or be “listed” and pay an additional listing fee.
Rule books for CKC trials are available directly from the CKC or can be obtained through the Nanaimo Kennel Club.
Obedience matches –The Nanaimo Kennel Club offers obedience practice matches throughout the year. These events are relatively informal,open to everybody,and your dog does not have to be CKC registered.
Please see the Events page for upcoming Obedience matches
