Lakeland Dog Training Club is located just outside Cambridge, Wisconsin on Evergreen Drive. We are a small and friendly club offering obedience and agility classes each year from April to October. We also hold an AKC Obedience Trial and an AKC Agility Trial every year. Although we are an AKC member club, both purebred and mixed-breed dogs are welcome in our classes and seminars. Our club meetings are held on the first Thursday of each month at 7:30 PM at our clubhouse.
We'll be there forever (having given up these less-than-perfect free websites). It's also a work-in-progress, containing only barebones info so far, but all of it current. See ya there!
This is all old news.
