Check us out: ccats.co.nz Canterbury Canine Agility Training Society
Do you like having fun and being active with your dog? Is your dog possibly bored, good with people and other dogs? If so, come and join us. We are a friendly group and need new members to come and join in the fun.
Where: Mairehau High School Grounds, Innes Road entrance.
When: Wednesday 6:45pm. New classes start each term. We have large lights. The new dogs will train on the enclosed tennis court. Once you and dog are confident to work off lead then you move to work on the grass area.
Cost: $90.00 for the whole year!
This Term our new Introduction to Agility class is: 5th Feb, 6:45pm
If your dog likes being around people, other dogs, gets a bit bored and likes being active this sport could be for you both.
Your dog needs to be healthy, over 12months of age, under reasonable control (does not have to have a perfect recall), sociable, loves being active. All sized dogs are welcome. Your dog does not need to be a pedigree or a working breed.

If you are not sure about joining us you and your family are also welcome to come and check us out and watch some training sessions before you join a class in the future. We are always happy to give you some advice if you think your dog is not quite ready or too young and we can help you to prepare to joining us in the future. The class is not hard and it leads you step by step.

Basically, agility is teaching your dog a number of ‘tricks’ that enable you to be able to perform a number of tasks that are put together and then suddenly you two can run around on an agility course. When you come and you will see the more experienced dogs working and you will realise that dogs just love to work with their owners and you become a team.

Are you excited ? Great so hop onto our website. Look along the top bar for New Members fill out the inquiry form you then should receive info back on how to join and what to bring on the first night (This might take a few days).
Our club is running a Dog Agility Competition on January 25/26 you are very welcome to come and watch the show. Bring the family and the entry is free. Drive in and park on the field.
Looking forward to seeing you soon

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

How much does it cost to join AEA?

There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
