OUR STORY .....
WHAT WE ARE:....................................................................................................................................
The SILVER STATE KENNEL CLUB, Inc. is an open membership, all breed~ obedience and agility club.
We are a member of the American Kennel Club. We are a non-profit corporation.
WHO WE ARE:
The majority of our members reside in Southern Nevada. These people represent all walks of life, and
their interest in dogs ranges from interested pet owners, obedience and agility minded, breeders,
exhibitors, professional handlers, trainers and AKC licensed judges. Our common bond is a unanimous
interest in purebred dogs.
WHERE WE ARE:........................................................................................................................
.............................................Please call 258-7752 for this information .............
SSKC is considered by many people to be one of the finest dog Clubs in the country. We conduct All
Breed Dog Shows, Agility and Obedience Trials in April. We also hold an AKC Sanctioned All Breed and
Obedience Match in September. ...........................................................................................................
Our monthly meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month at 7:00 P.M. The meetings are
geared to provide education as well as entertaining programs on all aspects of the world of purebred dogs.
As an extension of our education program we offer handling classes. Please see below for locations and
times. ......................................................................................................................
Each year an Annual Awards Presentation is held to honor the dogs that have earned titles and degrees
during the year as well as the breeders and Junior Handlers of the year.
HOW WE OPERATE:
.........................................................................................................................................
SILVER STATE KENNEL CLUB operates under a Constitution and by-laws approved by the American
Kennel Club. Under these by-laws, a Board of Director's consisting of nine people governs the Club. These
are the President, Vice-President, Show Chairman, Corresponding Secretary, Recording Secretary,
Treasurer and 3 Directors, one of which is the out-going President.
The by-laws set forth Silver State's main objective:
"... To unite dog fanciers interested in the welfare ,and betterment of the dog ... to assist members,
through instruction and education, in bringing the natural qualities of their breed to perfection ••. to
conduct Dog Shows, Obedience and Agility Trials and Sanction Matches, under the rules of the American
Kennel Club."
HOW WE BEGAN:...............................................................................................................
Summer of 1954 SSKC ran an ad in the local paper announcing the formation of a dog club by Joe and
Joan Cox. Twelve members were present at the first meeting and dues were $5.00 per person. August 25,
1955 First recorded meeting held with minutes taken by Ruth Anderson. November 6, 1955 First Fun
Match held at City Park with 113 entries. February 1956 First AKC Sanction B Match held at Cashman
Field. May 1959 First AKC Sanction A Match held with all decorations in Marine Blue and Silver. Actor
Preston Foster awarded the Best in Match Trophy. October 15, 1961 First All Breed Show held under the
direction of President Nila Smith. Edgar Moss was the Superintendent and a German Shepherd Dog owned
by Mary Roberts won Best in Show and was awarded a Paul Revere Bowl filled with· 300 Silver Dollars.
This was our beginning. We have not tried to give a complete SSKC history up to the present. We have
attempted to show, in capsule form, something of the background and progress of our club and a glimpse
of the long years of careful effort that have gone into the making of the SILVER STATE KENNEL CLUB.
WE LOOK AHEAD:................................................................................................................
SSKC today is on the alert for ways to better serve its members, to encourage and attract new dog
fanciers, and to advance the promotion and betterment of the world of dogs through education of both dog
lovers and the general public. We believe that in these ways we can help to stimulate attention to and
interest in effective local, state and national legislation and programs for the protection of dogs against
cruelty and theft, for better standards for hobby breeders and for improved treatment and training of dogs.
In our club activities and at our shows and matches we look for new and improved ideas to make for
better understanding, greater benefit and enjoyment to exhibitors, workers and "ringside" .
