Obedience Shows
Competition Obedience intends to establish a solid and positive relationship between a dog and its handler. It can be mentally stimulating for both the dog and the handler, TDTC runs a DogsNZ Competition Obedience show; check out our events calendar for details. If you are interested in Competition Obedience, see our Obedience page.
Canine Good Citizen Assessments
The Canine Good Citizen program brings a dog and its handler up to a gold standard of behaviour for dogs in our communities. DogsNZ assessment for CGC evaluates dogs in a relaxed testing environment where a dog can work through Foundation, Bronze, Silver and then through to Gold. Here at TDTC, we run up to two assessments per year; if you are interested in joining our CGC class or checking Assessment dates, see our calendar.
Agility Shows
