Conformation Shows

The Club conducts one Open Show and one Championship Show each year, at KCC Park, Cranbourne.

Entry in the Championship and Open Show is available to all persons, Club members or otherwise, who meet the necessary requirement of being a VCA member, and have dogs and bitches who are listed on the full register.

Walks and Hunts

The walks and Hunts are available for all members of the BCOV and are held at varying locations throughout Victoria at intervals throughout the year.  More details of the walks and hunts can be found in the bi-monthly newsletter - Paw Prints.

Litter Information

As a service to both its members and to the public in general, the Club maintains details of members who are registered breeders, who have puppies and older dogs for sale. A breeder must be a member of the Club for over 6 months before they can sell a litter of puppies through the Club.  If you are looking for a beagle puppy check out "acquiring a beagle" for some very good information.  We also have a Puppies for Sale page, where details of litters that are currently for sale are displayed.  

Advice about Beagles

If you have enquiries about the breed in general (is this the breed for you, what should you know about the breed before considering a puppy, behaviouretc), please call the Breed Advisory Officer, Judy Oliver.

Beagle Club Newsletter

Club members receive the Bi-monthly publication, Paw Prints, either by email for a full colour version, or by ordinary mail as a black and white printed copy.  The newsletter contains details of all Club business, as well as articles on our breed and canine affairs in general, of interest to Beagle owners. It also contains show results, special wins (from any form of competition), births, deaths, and any articles members would like to have included.  The magazine also provides for general advertising by members as well as yearly advertising for breeders, stud dogs and litters and provides an excellent medium for reaching the majority of concerned Beagle owners of Victoria.

All meetings are held on the second Wednesday of every third month at an address to be advised prior to the meeting.   Meetings are mostly attended by the Committee Members, but any financial club member is welcome to attend.  New ideas and suggestions are always welcome.  ** Please note - the meeting venue is currently under review, and details will be posted here as soon as they are available.**
