la1982 Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 Hi My puppy is now completely vaccinated and has started his walks outside and visiting dog parks around our area. He is really good with meeting new dogs but I would like to get him into a dog obedience club as soon as possible to let him meet new people and dogs and of course to be exposed to obedience training. Does anyone have an recommendations for good obedience clubs on Brisbanes southside? My puppy is a cross breed, will this affect what obedience clubs will let him join? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that he's a crossbreed should make absolutely no difference to the club . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MolassesLass Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 There is also Logan All Breeds Obedience Club which while others have told me of bad experiences, I've not had any (yet I would never set foot in Southside again from my past experiences). Depending on where in Logan you are, Jimboomba Obedience Club might also be fairly close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ML, I didn't now you trained at Logan, it's nice to hear something positive about it as (as you know) I used to train there, but have heard a couple of negative things about it lately. Next time you are down say hi to Lawrie & Laura from me . we went to a herding seminar on the weekend & the boy was the star student, worked really really well in the round yard, the guy running it said if I ever wanted to get rid of him he'd take him - I said no chance .

MolassesLass Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 (edited) I don't train at Logan at the moment - I don't train for obedience anywhere - I have trained there in the past. Congrats on the achievements you guys are having together, I'm so glad to hear you were a perfect match.

SueM Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Southside dog obedience is good, I went and watched Logan All Breeds one night recently I dont like it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lab-ROSE Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Maybe a tad too far but we attend www.centenarydogobedience.com.au at Darra. I have nothing yet to compare it too but we love it. All different breeds, lots of crosses and dogs of all ages. The instructor is training me nicely. I'm learning so much and my puppy is loving me for it. take care.

Mystiqview Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Labrose, Glad you found a training facility which suits you. Since moving to the dark side of town I miss Bonnies at The Gap.. Where I am now is good. Very small club, but overall good training there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seita Posted May 11, 2007 Share Posted May 11, 2007 Hey slightly off topic question... Mysticview: if I were to rock up at southside with an already trained dog who I want to proof for obedience competition would you guys make me go through all the classes or could I just jump into the advance class (whatever its called)? My pup will hopefully be ready for trials by the end of the year and I hope to start proofing her soon so will be looking for a club to do that at. I used to go to Bonnies too but like you its now a bit far away for me!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
