South Australian Obedience Dog Club

Joined and attended for a few months. High variability in trainers knowledge, experience and techniques (& friendliness). Some trainers are still quite 'old school' in their methods. Some trainers are great, it is potluck who you get assigned to each month. This club is more rigid in the way behaviours are taught and expected. If you are keen to teach your dog in a more collaborative environment, I would suggest looking elsewhere. Side note; if you have a fearful or anxious dog, this isn't the class nor club to address those concerns (mentioning because I saw some in the classes I attended)

A beautiful area to bring my dog for obedience training. All the staff are so wonderful and patient and they all volunteer. There's a gift shop where they have hand picked ethical, local produce at wholesale prices.

Brilliant caring volunteer organization that encourages positive behaviour in all training aspects. They provide training from first timers to competition ready, in both obedience and skills. I can't recommend them too highly, and our dog absolutely loves going.

SAODC is a voluntary organisation run by caring committed trainers. With classes from absolute beginner to trials and obedience competition level, there is aclass for every pooch. And above all, it's fun for both the dogs and owners.

Very helpful with Obedience & the teachers are very good. I use to attend Dover Dog Club many years ago with my 2 Mini Schnauzers. No problems so far. I will go back one year to get my first CCD with my youngest one.

The volunteers are devoted and do a great job.

Great place to meet with other owners and their dogs and undertake good training. With pups I recommend arriving early to let your pup play with others.
