Dog Scout Troop 171


"Let us learn new things, that we may become more helpful"
(Dog Scout motto)

 Dog Scout Troop 171 is officially registered with Dog Scouts of America.  For Dog Scout meeting and event schedule,  see the Event Calendar on our Schedule page.

If you like to do things with your dog, and would like to participate in some fun, learning and community service programs, this is made for you.

For those who remember your days in Scouting (of the human kind), you know how much fun it was to earn Merit Badges (Dog Scouts can earn almost 70 — see the list of Merit Badges below), go hiking, swimming, learn  First Aid and do public service projects.  Add your 4-legged companion to the mix and scouting takes on a whole new level.

We look forward to developing a variety of programs to supplement our other training opportunities. 

Come for the fun — and be sure to bring your canine pal!


Community Service Project

Our troop has undertaken a project to provide special Oxygen Masks for dogs to emergency responders in our area.  For more information click here.
