8-Day Western Caribbean Itinerary

Aboard Carnival Miracle

The K9 College Cruise offers seminars-at-sea on a variety of K9 topics.  It's the only event of it's kind to feature a faculty of world-renowned experts, all in one place, at one time.  And, unlike typical seminars, the experts don't go home when the seminar is over and neither do you!  You have the opportunity to meet 'n mingle with the faculty and other K9 cruisers from all across the United States, Canada, and abroad during the 8-day cruise.
