Single and Dual Foreign Residency Membership – For adults who reside outside the United States

The DCA Membership Application Process is Simple

 

Fill out the DCA Membership Application.

 

Use an attachment sheet if you need additional space to describe your history and experience with dachshunds. We’d love to learn more about you.

 

Have your two sponsors fill out and sign a Sponsor Questionnaire and help you prepare your membership application package (which should include these sponsor questionnaires). Local Dachshund club members are a great referral source for finding potential sponsors.

 

Include a check for the correct amount associated with the membership type you have chosen (equivalent to paying annual dues for the current calendar year – to attain good standing status).

 

Submit your application package to Georjan Bridger, DCA Membership Chair.  You will be contacted if any additional information is needed.

 

DCA Members: If you’ve missed the deadline to renew your dues, add $10 to the dues amount for your membership type to reinstate your membership.


Thank you for your interest in joining DCA.
