Club Meetings

Regularly scheduled club meetings are held at the time and location of Rottweiler conformation shows around Northern California. Club meetings generally take place 15-30 minutes after the Rottweilers' BOB is selected, usually at a site near the show ring. If Rotties are scheduled to show after lunch, we may schedule the meetings to begin before show time.

Meeting Policies

ARF general meetings are open to members and others interested in the Rottweiler breed and our club's activities. Board meetings are open to all members unless the Board must close a meeting for an Executive Session to discuss confidential matters.

ARF Membership

ARF members are committed to the enjoyment, protection and improvement of the Rottweiler breed. If you share that interest, whether or not you currently own a Rottweiler, you are invited attend one of our meetings, meet some members and, if you like what you see, to apply for membership.
