Conformation Class

Drop-In Conformation classes  start on Wednesday, January 14th -  following obedience at 8pm

The Valparaiso Kennel Club offers conformation classes each Wednesday evening at 8pm from September through May at the P.E.T.S. Training facility at 750 Rigg Rd. in Valparaiso. 

Class begins at 8 pm and continues for one hour.  Price of the class is $5.00 per session on a drop-in basis. 

The class is taught by our club members on a rotating schedule.  This affords the dogs the exposure to both men and women as judges and each instructor adds their own touch to the ring procedure.

Dogs must be up to date on all vaccinations.  Occasionally items such as collars and leads are available for purchase.  

The P.E.T.S. training facility is located at 750 Rigg Rd. Rigg Rd. is off of Rt 2 about 1 mile east of the intersection of Rt 2 and Rt. 49.  Go south on Rigg Rd. to the first drive on the right (west) side of the road.  Classes will be held in the big white pole barn.
