Responsible Dog Owners of Canada (RDOC), formerly the National Capital
Coalition for People and Dogs (NCCPD), is a registered, all-volunteer non
profit organization.
Founded in 1999, the organization’s primary
mandate was to promote and maintain off leash privileges on lands governed by
the National Capital Commission.
Successful in securing a larger and greater number of dog
friendly areas, the organization is turning its focus on the promotion of responsible
dog ownership through education. The focal point now for the group is developing
and hosting educational programs and workshops like the Dog Owner Training
School (D.O.T.S.), DOG-ED, Canadian Canine Good Citizenship Test™ (CCGC™) and a
Dog Bite Prevention Program.
Through education, RDOC’s goal is to build and support a
network of responsible dog owners, raise awareness of dogs and their behaviour
and facilitate the restoration and preservation of a dog-friendly society.
