THE PHILOSOPHY OF THE RKC

 

The ‘founding’ members of the RKC shared and expressed a vision for the future. They wanted the RKC to be something ‘different’ in the manner of its operation and how it would become part of the local community.

“Sharing the load” and “sharing the satisfaction” became two important ideas for us. Working together, celebrating together and respecting each other's contribution would be our way of putting these two ideas into practice.

Accordingly, the initial meeting of our Club spent a lot of time developing several“protocols” or principles, which we would use to govern our behaviours within/without the club.  Additionally, the rules of incorporation gave us the way of conducting our club and addressing such things as ‘accountability’ etc.

Collegiality and fellowship within the dog world is an important part of our hobby. The Romsey Kennel Club is the way we want to do this.
