Welcome to the Kansas City Disc Dogs!Check Out the KCDD on Facebook! Our Facebook page tends to be more up to date and have more activity than the website, so be sure to stop by! Who we are.
The Kansas City Disc dogs are a group of dogs and their owners that enjoy playing frisbee, both for fun and competition. We welcome anyone that enjoys the same or is interested in teaching their dog to play frisbee, whether they just want to play with their dog in the backyard or get involved with competing and performing.
Who can join?
Anyone with a dog and a frisbee and a desire to have fun is encouraged to join. Beginners are more than welcome, hopefully we can help you train your dog to play frisbee.
What dog breeds can join?
Any dog breed is welcome! Our two charter members, Luna and Bandit, are both loveable mutts that came from local rescue groups.
Why frisbee?
Playing frisbee with your dog has several advantages:
- Excellent bonding between you and your pet
- Great exercise for your canine friend (and for you, sometimes!)
- Minimal equipment involved (at a minimum, it just takes you, the dog and a frisbee)
- It gives your dog a ‘job’. This is especially important for high energy ‘working’ dogs, such as herding breeds and retrievers. More info…
- Most importantly, it is LOTS OF FUN!
Why should I join a disc dog club?
By having a club, we are able to share training tips, throwing tips (for the humans), attend competitions as a club, host events, and participate in local demos, just to name a few advantages. Most importantly, to have fun together!
