How much to join?

What are the classes like in obedience and agility?

Saturday, 10.30am for obedience (get there a bit earlier to settle your dog). It's about $75 per year but that would be for a family.....a single is cheaper. They do obedience, agility, tracking and I've heard they are looking at introducing flyball at some stage in the future.

Agility is 8.30am, it doesn't cost extra but you're expected to be there to help set up and pack away the gear. They have a 6 week course for beginners, plenty of one-on-one instruction......you and your dog are taught how to use the equipment....then it all comes together for the course. My daughter is doing agility and having a ball!

Obedience classes are fun, they have 4 graduations a year. There are lots of experienced people, including a qualified obedience judge. I find it all very friendly and helpful and try not to miss a Saturday. The training is mostly positive and each instructor has their preferences (I currently have an instructor that prefers correction chains and doesn't like food rewards). Mostly it's about doing stuff with your dog and enjoying it.

Thanks for the info GayleK it sounds like a good club and I have been hearing good things about it. Hopefully once I get the work issue sorted out i'll be able to come and check it out.
