HDOC Membership 

In addition to enjoying club meetings and events, HDOC members are asked to volunteer at the trials or on committees for other activities. Prospective members are required to attend at least two HDOC meetings and their membership application must be sponsored by two club members and approved by the Board of Directors.

A prospective member must attend at least two of our monthly meetings before joining and  paying the annual club dues.  Members receive a discount when paying for training classes.

Membership Inquiries: Talk to one of the Red Shirts (HDOC members) at the park.
​
HDOC Membership is not required to participate in HDOC training classes.

Meetings and Field Trips 

HDOC meetings may be held at different venues so club members may enjoy outings with our friends and dogs.

​Meetings have included visits to the beach, parks, restaurants, and hikes, lectures and demonstrations by trainers, police dogs, chiropractors, etc. If you have a suggestion for a meeting, please let us know.​

Obedience, Rally & Tracking Trials 

Therapy Dogs

HDOC holds its annual AKC Obedience and Rally Trials in early May.  We also hold an AKC Tracking Trial earlier in the year.

Both are great opportunities to show your dog, meet members of other club and help out.
​

Many HDOC members and their dogs have passed tests qualifying them to work as Therapy Dog and handler teams. HDOC therapy dog and handler teams visit nursing homes, hospitals, and other facilities, and may be available to visit additional facilities on request.
