Kennel Club launches new website

New design and layout for user-friendly experience

The Kennel Club, the UK’s largest organisation dedicated to the health and welfare of dogs, has launched a brand new website in an effort to create a more user-friendly experience.

It continues to deliver information on a range of subjects, including dog activities, health and welfare, breeding, buying, training and enjoying life with dogs, and has been designed to help users more easily find what they are looking for.

The new website is also hoped to reflect the Kennel Club’s key objective – to work for "the general improvement of dogs".

Alongside its new design, layout and improved navigation, the website provides faster access to essential information. Visitors to the site will now be able to view information that is detailed, relevant, easy to read and easy to understand.

New features include a Google search tool and a news section, as well as the popular services of the old website, such as the Kennel Club Breed Information Centre and the recently launched MyKC service for breeders and puppy owners.

The Kennel Club’s Facebook and Twitter feeds have also been integrated, allowing information and opinions to be shared openly. Furthermore, the site features a brand new section dedicated to vets and researchers.

"The Kennel Club website has been tailored to meet the different needs of its various types of visitor – from dog owners and prospective puppy buyers to dog professionals such as breeders, dog trainers, vets and those involved in dog activities," said Caroline Kisko, Kennel Club secretary.

"We have been consulting with our customers during testing and we have received extremely positive feedback."
