Welcome

Our club is 61 years old; established in 1963! We are affiliated to the Kennel Union of Southern Africa and train internationally recognised training disciplines like home and competitive obedience, scent work, agility, rally, flyball (our way), carting, Canine Good Citizen, tricks and our newly established 4 x 4 obstacle course including gymkhana and our annual adventure hunt! Home protection is offered to members who are invited.

Owning a dog should mean more than keeping him in the back garden. By training your dog in the basics of obedience, you will find yourself bonding with your dog  and slowly but surely, you will be rewarded with changes in behaviour, which will lead to a  more harmonious home environment.

At the Pretoria Shepherd Dog Club you will learn to walk calmly with your dog on lead, to recall your  dog and to get your dog to stay.  With time your dog will learn the advanced side of training like retrieving a dumbbell or toy and scent discrimination.  Another fun exercise we offer is the obstacle course, where you and your dog will be taught how to approach and maneuver through the obstacle course.  Protection classes will be given to dogs that have attained a certain level of obedience.  A whole new world will open up for you and your dog once the training takes place!

Nowhere have we said dog training is easy.  It takes time and commitment to build a special relationship. Please join us on Saturday afternoons to take the first step to building a lifelong bond with your dog.

Due to high demand and our instructors volunteering at full capacity, we unfortunately cannot assist with aggressive or dangerous dogs.

Please do not apply if your dog is aggressive or considered dangerous.
