Who we are

NSDTC is the oldest AKC member obedience training club in the United States.

Thanks to everyone who made the North Shore Dog Training Club's 83rd All-Breed Obedience Trial and 18th Rally Trial a huge success! Our club members and stewards were the best, the competitors were a joy and the judges were fun. Check out the Events page for a collage!

Thank you to all the club members, volunteers and participants who helped to make our annual Trials a success! North Shore Dog Training Club's 82nd All-Breed Obedience Trial and 17th Rally Trial were held Sunday, June 18, 2023 at the Wag Training Center in Spring Grove again. Fun was had by all!
