Dog Club Members (October 2010)Experienced instruction is given with the aim of providing you with a good companion dog. Attend classes regularly, follow our training tips, do 10 minutes a day "homework" and you will have a well trained and happy dog ... and a happier household!

For those wishing to continue further, the Club assists with preparation for competing in dog obedience trials and runs activity classes, based on the popular agility dog sport.

Please note: The Club welcomes all dogs provided they are fully vaccinated. A current vaccination certificate must be provided when joining the Club and renewing membership.

Adult Dog Classes are suitable for dogs aged 6 months or older. The Club offers a 6 week Responsible Dog Ownership (RDO) Course. Recorded attendance for each week of the course earns the owner and dog a Certificate of Attendance and progression to either our Foundation Class, where both can build upon the exercises covered in the RDO Course, or to Class 1 of the Club's Advanced Training Classes. The Club runs further Advanced Training (Classes 2 to 4), for which promotion tests must be passed for progression.

The Club runs Activity Training Classes, based on the Agility dog sport, to complement our Obedience Training. These classes teach handlers and dogs how to navigate an obstacle course, including bar jumps, tyre jumps, tunnel, weaves and broad jumps.
