| How we started: In May 2006 we held
a dogsports seminar at the hangar at the Sydney Airport and 3 great
trainers from Lietash came down
from Halifax for the day.
About 20 people came with their dogs (some with more than one)
and another 10 or so came without dogs just to watch. We were very
happy with the turnout and able to cover the cost of the workshop
and also donate $115 to the SPCA.
The interest level was keen and we have now formed our own local
club and have dreams of future tournaments on our own turf. |
June, 2008: Our veteran dogs performed
a Flyball Demo at the Annual SPCA Dog Jog at Neville Park in Whitney
Pier. The weather was fabulous, the turnout was great, and much
fun was had by all the dogs and their humans! If you happened to
have caught our demonstration (or even if you didn't!), stop by
one of our regularly scheduled practices on Saturday mornings, 11
am, at Ukrainian Field on Swan Street in Whitney Pier and check
us out!
We now have two fully functioning Flyball Boxes and a variety of
Agility Equipment. With the weather clearing up, all the dogs and
their humans are back at it and plan to drag race in the summer! |
Dogs must have basic obedience, offleash
control, and be friendly with other dogs and humans in order to
participate.
We ask that you please Contact
us for more information, and not just show up with your dog
as it distracts the current dogs in the club while they are training... |
