The Whippet Club of British Columbia, Canada was formed to promote the whippet breed. The WCOBC hosts both breed-specific and all-breed events for people to enjoy with their dogs.
The Whippet Club of BC hosts many types of events annually, including but not limited to:
- Lure coursing (sighthounds)
- Specialty conformation show (whippets only)
- Agility (all breeds)
We encourage you to take some time to browse this web page and Like us on Facebook.
NOTE: We will always recommend you visit the National Whippet Club of Canada’s breeder contacts to find a breeder. The Whippet Club of BC cannot recommend a specific breeder to you. We wish you the best of luck in your search.

Upcoming Events – 2026
- October 2-4, 2026: All-breed CKC Agility trials in Kelowna, BC.
- October 10-11, 2026: 6 x all-breed CKC Sprinter tests (3 per day) in Okanagan Falls, BC.

Pending CKC approval, we usually offer Lure Coursing trials in May (sighthounds only); a Whippet Specialty (conformation) show in conjunction with other regional specialties in July in the lower mainland; and Agility trials in April and October of each year. Dates are published on CanuckDogs as they are approved by the CKC.
You are welcome to attend events without participating in them in order to meet other whippet fanciers or to learn about the breed (unless otherwise indicated). When attending events for information or curiosity, we simply ask that you approach participants when they are not competing and understand that they might be busy or focused on the task at hand and not able to immediately answer your questions. Note that the only dogs allowed onsite during events are those registered for the event. For the safety and comfort of all, dogs that are not registered to participate must not be onsite.
