The Siberian Husky Club of Great Britain (SHCGB) is the UK’s national breed club dedicated to the promotion and welfare of the Siberian Husky. Formed with the permission of The Kennel Club in 1977, the organisation was established to educate owners, encourage responsible breeding and promote the working heritage of the breed in the United Kingdom.
The club brings together enthusiasts, breeders and owners who share an interest in Siberian Huskies, whether for companionship, showing or working activities. It organises Open and Championship dog shows each year and supports winter working rallies where owners and their dogs can participate in harness activities and trail events.
Alongside its events, the club provides guidance on responsible ownership, breeding ethics and the health of the breed. Through education, shows and working activities, the Siberian Husky Club of Great Britain works to preserve the characteristics and traditional capabilities that define the Siberian Husky as a northern working dog.
