The club is a not for profit social community organisation whose primary aim is to promote responsible dog ownership in the Eurobodalla and surrounding area. We assist handlers in teaching the basics of dog obedience using Positive Motivational Methods, with rewards such as food and lots of praise to encourage the dog to repeat desired behaviours, rather than forceful negative methods.

At our beginners introductory night for all members of the family (no dogs), we will discuss our training curriculum, show handlers different types of equipment they may wish to use and attend a team demonstration display put on by our Instructors.

All handlers and their dogs are most welcome to join our club. Dogs must be fully vaccinated, over the age of 4 months, with relevant paperwork to be cited when joining. Enquiries can be made by calling Magda on 44711440.

Further information and registration forms are available from our web page www.eurocanine.webs.com, our facebook page or by emailing us eurodogclub@outlook.com
