Founded in 1977 to promote the sport of pure-bred dogs, the Hendersonville Kennel Club has evolved into a community based organization that also promotes responsible dog ownership, public education, and seeks to protect the rights of dog owners in our community.  We sponsor conformation show training classes, dog socialization, and Canine Good Citizen classes.
