Warrenton Kennel Club and the Community

As part of our mission, in addition to putting on dog shows showcasing our wonderful canines and holding community dog training classes, the Warrenton Kennel Club supports various community dog-related activities. Here are some:

On October 2, 2018 the Warrenton Kennel Club presented to the Fauquier County Sheriff K9 Unit a check for $3,000 to help the department buy a new K9 dog. One of their K9 dogs will be retired and new dogs cost a great deal of money. The Warrenton Kennel Club wanted to help the acquisition of a new K9 officer who will provide a great deal of support to the Fauquier County Community.

The WKC donated the money to buy vests for the two Fauquier canine officers shown in these photos. These vests were custom made for each dog and provide needed protection in their work.
