The Big Horn Basin Kennel Club brings the sport of purebred dogs home to the Basin. Pet owners, first-time exhibitors and seasoned breeders are all welcome, and together we're building toward our first dog show, August 27–29, 2027.
Grab three friends and play a four-player scramble at Olive Glenn Golf Course. Lunch at noon, shotgun start at 1:00 PM, $150 per player, and a $10,000 hole-in-one prize. Every dollar goes toward our first dog show.

Every established club started here. This is how we get from a group of dog lovers to a show ring in the Basin.
The club is a registered 501(c)(3), so it can accept tax-deductible donations and put every dollar toward its mission.
We're growing our membership and raising what it takes to put on a show: rings, mats, ribbons, trophies, judges and a venue.
Hands-on events where members practice running a show and newcomers try the ring for the first time.
Three days of showing, Friday through Sunday. Venue and entry details will be posted on the Shows & Events page.
Well-run, welcoming shows close to home, so Basin exhibitors don't have to drive across the state to compete.
Mentoring and scholarships for the young people who show dogs and will carry the sport forward.
Donations to local nonprofits, so the good that comes from the club stays in the communities that support it.
Our first big fundraiser: a four-player scramble at Olive Glenn Golf Course with a $10,000 hole-in-one prize.
Event detailsThe club is a registered nonprofit, so donations can be tax-deductible. We'll provide a receipt for every gift.
