United Kennel Club (UKC) is the leading dog sport organization and performance dog registry. Founded in 1898 and headquartered in Kalamazoo, Michigan, UKC celebrates and elevates Dogs That Do More™. The UKC performance dog portfolio includes the American Field brand & Field Dog Stud Book (est. 1874). Through our vast reach and 140+ year history, UKC is the trusted authority on sporting dog competitions, performance dog evaluation, and field trial excellence. Through UKC’s dynamic event and sport offerings, UKC dog owners receive access to the most legitimate competition circuit where year-end tournament winnings total over $330,000 in combined purse value.
UKC’s annual event trail – stretching coast to coast and 18,000 events strong – paired with UKC-owned media channels (including ukcdogs.com with 2 million annual visitors, weekly podcast, and e-newsletter reaching 4,000 subscribers), plus direct, authorized touchpoints with Registrants places the UKC platform at the pinnacle of dog-centric advertising. The four industry-leading publications, like Coonhound Bloodlines, in print monthly for over 50 years, are the ideal outlet for highly-target hands-on campaigns. On-site presence at such events as the UKC Tournament of Champions, UKC Premier Nationals, UKC Total Dog Invitational, UKC Youth National Championship, and UKC Coonhound World Championship, to name a few, is awarded to select vendors, sponsors, and partners only. Inquiries are encouraged to capitalize on the visibility available within customizable packages. We proudly stand by Dogtra products, the official GPS Collar Partner of UKC; and our Performance Dog Nutrition Partner, Eukanuba.
