Membership in the LCNW

Membership in the Leonberger Club of the Northwest (LCNW) offers the opportunity to benefit from the expertise of the most experienced Leonberger fanciers in the region. Joining the LCNW is a great way to meet and talk with breeders and other knowledgeable owners about the care and training needs of our special breed. Members receive a regular e-newsletter (LCNW eNews) and are able to use LCA privileges in our region - like Early Entry in our annual Water Test! Each year we typically host monthly group walks, several working events, a regional specialty show, and other enjoyable activities for the benefit of our members and anyone interested in Leonbergers. We look forward to meeting you!
