VDC/YCKC Breed Showcase

On Saturday, September 13, 2008, VDC and YCKC co-sponsored a Breed Showcase ("Meet the Breeds") in Scarborough, ME. Several local clubs and organizations participated in the event, including:

Breeds represented included Great Danes, Chihuahuas, and almost everything in between. The combination of fair weather and a very visible location helped draw the crowds. It was a great day for socialization, for kids and dogs, and families were able to obtain information about their favorite dog breeds, training, rescue, responsibilities of ownership, and pet care.Downeast Dog News covered the event and took photos for an upcoming edition.

In addition, we offered AKC Canine Good Citizen testing, and 15 dog/owner teams passed the tests. Congratulations to all our new Canine Good Citizens!
