What is MAPBD?
The Michigan Association for Pure Bred Dogs (MAPBD) is a
Michigan non-profit organization, founded in 1964 and
incorporated in 1965. Its membership consists of 151 dog
clubs, the majority of which are AKC Licensed and Member
Clubs. This number includes all-breed kennel clubs, specialty
clubs, obedience clubs, agility clubs, herding clubs, and lure
coursing clubs. Many of the 72 specialty clubs also hold field
trials and hunt tests. Additionally, MAPBD has over 100
individual members.
There are no paid staff members and all work is accomplished
by volunteer efforts.
From its beginning, MAPBD has promoted responsible dog
ownership in Michigan. However, with each passing year, due
to increased pressure from well-funded national animal rights
groups, MAPBD has had to dramatically increase its effective
volunteer lobbying efforts. As a result, MAPBD must budget
significant amounts of money to consistently lobby at both state
and municipal levels to keep Michigan a dog-friendly state.
We invite you to explore our website and learn more about us
and the work our members do to protect Michigan dogs.
We also urge you and your club to get involved.
