Welcome to the Western Afghan Hound Club

 

The WESTERN AFGHAN HOUND CLUB was formed in 1968 and provides afghan enthusiasts the opportunity to exhibit their hounds at two annual Open Shows and a Championship Show.

 

The aims and objectives of the Club are to promote interest in the Afghan Hound and to maintain its future in the UK. We aim to promote breed classes within the region and can provide judges or rosette sponsorship to societies that use judges from our lists.
