Join the fun!

Give us a dog that wants to work and its human that wants to go for a ride and we’ll harness that energy!

Our club trains dogs, mentors dog-loving people, and gets the human-canine team rigged up for dog-powered sports of all kinds – sledding, skijoring, bikejoring, mountain scootering, urban mushing, canicross and more.

Whether it’s a one dog-one human team or a dog lover with a pack of mutts - the CSDC is an inclusive club.
