About Our Club

What We Do

  • The PSEC meets at least 4 times yearly for meetings, practices in earthdog, and we host three weekends of tests a year. Check out our events page for our next scheduled practice or test.

  • We have fun getting together to watch our dogs enjoy doing what they were bred to do. We're really supportive of each other and our earthdogs.

  • The club offers several awards for members.

Club Objectives

  • to promote the natural and trained hunting and working abilities of small Terriers and Dachshunds when exposed to hunting situations
