The Houston Canine Frisbee Disc Club was created by a group of dogs and their owners who enjoy playing with flying discs. We started playing in our backyards and progressed onward to competitions, meet-ups, and demos. We would love to share our disc dog world with you. We welcome everyone from beginners to experts to join us at our events. Whether you just want to learn how play with your dog in the backyard or get more involved with the Houston Canine Frisbee Disc Club, please join us!
