Club Info

CATC is Central Ohio's only AKC licensed not-for-profit dog training club, dedicated to promoting responsible dog ownership.  Located on the southeast side of Columbus, we are open to both pure-bred and mixed breed dogs.  Since 1953, we have been helping people co-exist with their dogs in a happy home.  We train you to train your dog.  Whether you want a household companion or a dog sport competitor, we can help you reach your goals.
