MISSION STATEMENT
Milwaukee Dog Training Club is an inclusive nonprofit creating better relationships between dogs, their handlers, and the community.
About Us
The Milwaukee Dog Training Club, located at 4375 N. Humboldt Blvd. in Milwaukee, WI (behind the location of the old Wisconsin Humane Society) was founded in 1929. In 2005 we opened our new, indoor location at 333 N. 25th St., also in Milwaukee. Today we lay claim to being the oldest dog training club in the Midwest.
We offer classes in obedience, agility, flyball and are involved in many other fun events & activities. Visitors are welcome at all of our training sessions.
How We Train
We are a nonprofit hobby club with a group of experienced and knowledgeable dog enthusiasts serving as instructors. We are licensed by the American Kennel Club (AKC), and our training program is based on the AKC trial rules and regulations. This type of program not only permits you to enter American Kennel Club competitions (if you so desire), but also develops a well-mannered dog for everyday urban living.
The MDTC prides itself in promoting responsible dog ownership and care by offering the Milwaukee community low-cost, much needed dog obedience classes. Membership is open to adults 16 and over, accepting both purebred and mixed breed dogs ages 6 months and older.
We also offer classes in Agility, and Flyball. View those sections for more information about how to sign up for classes and who to contact with questions.

A Community of Dog Lovers
At Milwaukee Dog Training Club, we believe that training dogs is just the beginning of what makes our club special. Beyond our training programs, members connect through events including regular "Social Sunday" potlucks and holiday gatherings. You'll also find MDTC members and their dogs participating in local parades, festivals, and community events throughout the Milwaukee area. These shared experiences help create lasting connections between members while supporting our broader community.
