The Southeast Alabama Kennel Club (SEAKC) is a non-profit organization
located in Dothan, Alabama. The SEAKC was formed at Ft. Rucker,
Alabama on June 2, 1972 with the adoption of a Constitution and a set of
By-Laws. The Articles of Incorporation were adopted by the General
Membership in June 1978.
The Clubs Objectives are:

The SEAKC received its AKC license to hold AKC All Breed Shows and
Obedience Trials in March 1982. Our first AKC Licensed All Breed Dog
Show and Obedience Trial was held at the Houston County Farm Center
on Monday, February 28, 1983.
Twice a year, the SEAKC sponsors AKC licensed dog shows and
obedience trials. Once a year, the club sponsors an AKC sanctioned
match. (A match is a practice show to help train novice dogs and handlers
for actually entering an AKC dog show).
Ten week training classes for obedience and six week training classes for
conformation are held twice a year. These classes are open to the public.
Contact a club member or your local veterinarian for the date and location
of the next class

The SEAKC participates in local festivals and parades. Demonstrations
and clinics are held at shopping malls, schools, nursing homes, etc.
