AKC

AMERICAN KENNEL CLUB

    I am not personally a big fan of the AKC,  they do good in a lot instances.  They offer a wide variety of things to help with your dog.  I suppose my biggest complaint is a lot of people say the AKC is the end all of knowledge about dogs, which they are not.  They are a big organization, they have sub organizations within.  There is a lot of valuable information to be learned from them, but they are not the end all of knowledge when it comes to your personal dog.  I must again say, my motto. 
"NOT ALL DOGS ARE THE SAME." 

With that said, I am going to go over some of the things that the AKC offers, with specific information about their trick dog titles and Canine Good Citizen.  

AKC CANINE HEALTH FOUNDATION:  This nonprofit organization is dedicated to the prevention and treatment of diseases in all dogs.

AKC RESUCE NETWORK: The largest network of dog rescue groups within the US.

AKC REUNITE: North America's largest non profit pet ID and recovery service. Providing a national recovery database to safely return dogs home should they get lost. 

AKC PET DISASTER RELIEF:  Helping local emergency management to provide animal care services immediately following disasters.

AKC HUMANE FUND:  Grants and resources to pet related organizations across the nation for educating the public about responsible dog ownership.

Theses are a few of the services they offer.
