The Walla Walla Kennel Club began as a private club which was founded by one time owner Ward Gardner. On September 10, 1940 the WWKC was inducted as an AKC Club.
CONGRATULATIONS WE HAVE A RAFFLE WINNER!
The Walla Walla Kennel Club All-Breed Dog Rescue Fund has raffled the quilt donated to the club last April. The raffle ended on July 31, 2008 and the winning ticket winner is Joan Montillet of Dayton, WA.
Handling Practice will start again on Tuesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. at Wildwood Park (corner of Division St. & Boyer St.) Anyone interested in practicing with their dogs are welcome to attend at no cost. This is a great way to socialize your dogs and brush up on skills for the next show ring experience. Beginners are always welcome and encouraged. The kennel club members are taking turns judging .
