Welcome to the Baltimore County Kennel Club!

The Baltimore County Kennel Club (BCKC) was established in 1935 and is one of the oldest kennel clubs in Maryland. As an American Kennel Club (AKC) regional club affiliate, BCKC works to further the advancement of all breeds of purebred dogs, encourage sportsmanship in competition, and conduct shows, performance, companion, and educational events under the rules and regulations of the AKC. While our members participate in a wide variety of activities, all of our dogs are first and foremost beloved companions.

BCKC typically holds 3 events annually to include the Cherry Blossom Cluster, Fast CAT and a Show & Go.

Our largest annual event held in April at the Maryland State Fairgrounds, the Cherry Blossom shows include multiple regional specialties, all breed competition, as well as Obedience and Rally trials over a three day weekend.  See our Events Calendar for more information.
