As part of the group's educational mandate, members participate in independent public displays and special events.  Currently, BARRIE KENNEL AND OBEDIENCE CLUB, INC. is active in the opposition of Breed Specific Legislation as contained in the Government's Bill 132, passed in 2005.

The Club is governed by the rules and regulations of the Canadian Kennel Club, Inc.

The membership continues to support up and coming junior handlers across the province in a variety of ways.  We offer junior handling competitions all 3 days of our annual dog show.
