We had a vision and a dream of providing quality training and facilities and wanted to make it a reality.

We want the standards of K9 competition sports in Ireland and Northern Ireland to rise and keep rising, this is already beginning to happen in agility with better facilitates (at long last) being provided for the competitors, more weekend shows being staged and  some additional training being offered to competitors within their own 'clubs', there is still a long way to go, however it is now starting to move in the right direction.

 The expectations of K9 exhibitors in Ireland to rise and keep rising.

Junior handlers and their k9s to realise their full potential. .......and they are with K9ARC juniors qualifying for events like Cruft's.

 K9s to realise their full potential.......  we have too many successes to mention them all, however, the K9 who on greeting people (including his owners) submissively urinated through fear........ to starting to compete and won his first competition after lots of hard work and dedication by his handler or the handler who had been told his K9 was aggressive and should never be let off lead with other K9s around, after attending K9ARC classes and completing the Agility Performance Coaching Program, he won K9ARCs annual Best in Show trophy.

Education in the community....such as a demonstration by K9ARC members and hands-on dog handling with the disabled young people who attend the Fleming Fulton School in Belfast to training staff Ttouch, acupressure and behaviour work at Animal Rescue Center's, all this goes towards encouraging a more positive view of the K9 in the Community .
