The RCDTBP welcomes application from any individual in good standing with an interest in the canine world, and in particular, those involved in teaching and advising others, whether experienced, studying, in training, or building their experience to do so.
Please ensure you have read the CAWC Code of Practice, the various Information pages and the Council's Policy Document before pressing the 'Apply' button below to confirm your understanding.

You will be directed to the payment page. Individual Registration fee is £25 (valid for three years) and must be paid in full. Once payment has been processed by our Paypal account, you will be directed back to our ‘Thank You’ page, with further instructions. Occasionally this does not happen, so please ‘contact us’ with your name, payment details and a brief introduction to your background.
Your name and location will be added to the website with your Registration ID. You will be permitted to use the statement "(your name) is a RCDTBP Signatory to the CAWC Code", provided it is not used in a way that is likely to mislead the public, and when used on websites a direct link is provided to the 'Information for the Public' page. To complete the registration process you will be required to create an account and build a professional profile of experience and knowledge etc.
Please note that the RCDTBP will not sell or give your personal details to any third parties without seeking your permission unless we are legally instructed to do so under UK law. If you experience any problems with the application or payment process, please contact us.
