Member Achievements

Warragul Dog Club has reinstated its end of year Recognition of Achievement for members who have gained successes with titles and awards  in dog sport and conformation disciplines.

Members will need to submit a request for the club achievement sashes by 1 October. These will be presented at the club’s end of year event on the last class day of the year. 

Member Responsibilities

  • Your dog is YOUR responsibility at all times!
  • All dogs – no matter how big or small – have the potential to cause serious damage or injury.
  • Dogs do not think like people, so to understand your dog you need to think like a dog.
  • NEVER hit your dog to discipline it, as this will only make it fearful.
  • Do not leave your dog unsupervised when it is tied up.
  • NEVER allow your dog to approach a strange dog tethered and alone.
  • Do not assume that because YOUR dog is friendly, other dogs will be OK with it.
  • Learn how to read dog  warning signs to help prevent dog aggression incidents.
  • If you are unsure what another dog is like – stay away.
