The Gawler Dog Training Club Inc, founded in 1980, is a sports club based in Gawler, South Australia. Affiliated with Dogs SA Inc, which is the Local Controlling Body member of the Australian National Kennel Council, the club is dedicated to promoting responsible dog ownership through education and training.
At the Gawler Dog Training Club, dog owners have the opportunity to socialise with other owners and allow their dogs to socialise with each other. The club aims to help owners train their dogs to become great companions, well-behaved pets, and enjoyable additions to their households. The training offered at the club covers all aspects of a dog's life, such as going for walks, enjoying a dog park, and greeting visitors at home.
Without socialisation and basic training, dogs may become uncomfortable and limited in their existence, merely serving as backyard additions. The club believes that training in an atmosphere outside the dog's comfort zone allows owners to identify and address any behavioural issues early on. This, in turn, helps create a more sound and happy dog that enjoys being part of both the family and the community.
Taking the right steps in training a dog also encourages owners to be more active with their pets. They are more likely to walk the dog, take it on holidays, and enjoy its intelligence and usefulness. The club values the special bonds formed between owners and their dogs, and believes that introducing puppies to puppy classes, where they can interact with other dogs, helps create a strong foundation for their future behaviour and development.
As a result of the efforts put in by the club and other similar organisations, there are now fewer dogs roaming the streets, more dog parks, and more opportunities for owners to holiday with their dogs. There is also a greater understanding of relationships between children and dogs, leading to safer and more enriching interactions. The Gawler Dog Training Club takes pride in being an integral influence in the evolution of safer, sounder, and more secure canine companions.
The club welcomes members of all ages and dogs of all ages. It aims to be inclusive and takes pride in its role in creating a safer and healthier community of dog owners. Whether you have a new puppy or an older dog, the Gawler Dog Training Club offers training programmes and activities that cater to the needs of all dogs and provide valuable guidance and support to their owners.
