What is CHAKO?

A national Dog Owners' Education and Advocacy Group! CHAKO is for all dog owners, of all breeds, pure and mixed, show, pet or working, all over the United States.

CHAKO does NOT have 501(c)(3) status. Not having 501(c)(3) status allows us to fight for dog owners, without restrictions! We fight, and we fight hard! We hold public education events, offer CGC testing periodically, and battle laws that adversely impact responsible dog owners. Those are just some of our activities that benefit dogs and dog owners.

However, we need YOUR help. Our strength is in numbers, so please become a member or, at the very least, check out our shirts or bracelets.

Is CHAKO breed-specific?

No! We advocate for all breeds of dogs (and, by extension, their owners)! We lobby and support the rights of responsible dog owners across the U.S., regardless of their breeds of choice!

What does (or will) CHAKO do?

In part we:

  • Write Letters to Politicians
  • Offer Canine Good Citizen Testing
  • Place anti breed discrimination ads when necessary
  • Produce public service announcements via web, radio, and/or television
  • Endorse or Opposes Politicians

  • Distribute information to members
  • Assist with Court Battles, when necessary
  • Act as a Breed Discrimination Watchdog, keeping an eye on the media, companies, and other organizations that may directly or indirectly endorse or promote breed discrimination
  • Produce documentaries or other multimedia presentations
  • Help educate people about the rights of persons with disabilities to own and be accompanied by service dogs
