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.
