Beginners Classes

Hi everyone. We have had a few issues with the beginners class booking system which has meant the last month or two has seen a reduction in numbers for the classes.
We have been able to rectify the problem and we are back on the air again with bookings coming in quite regularly.

If any of you hear of someone who either missed out on a class or didn't receive the emails we normally send out, please get them to contact me at [email protected] and we will see what we can do. The next class starts Tuesday 6th May.

Also known as 'The King of Terriers', the Airedale Terrier is a relatively young breed in comparison to many other breeds of dogs, with its origins being traced back to a little over 150 years ago.

Some facts about the Airedale Terrier:
1) they weigh between 20-30Kgs
2) their height at the withers is 58–61 centimeters for males, with females slightly smaller
3) These are hypoallergenic dogs and has a non shedding coat

Airedale Terriers are hard-working, hard-playing dogs with boundless energy. They are vigilant and protective, making them excellent watchdogs, though they are friendly to family and friends. We love these lovely animals!!

The Canadian Eskimo Dog is called ‘Qimmiq’ by the Inuit. The breed proved popular with Arctic explorers and earned a reputation as a sled dog that could pull the heaviest loads over the greatest distances on the least amount of food.

It has a long association with humans and is a gentle and affectionate companion. The breed can be overly responsive to any stimuli and are best suited to an adult household. It is important to note that the breed does not adapt well to temperate climates.

The Boston Terrier is an American creation originating in the city of Boston. Today’s Boston Terrier resulted from a blending between an English Bulldog and a white English Terrier around 1870, followed by a further combination with French Bulldogs.

They are highly active dogs, sturdy, bold and playful. Some Bostons may get feisty towards unfamiliar dogs. They are highly intelligent but may be stubborn at times. Consistency and positive reinforcement are the best teaching methods, along with socialisation and training from a young age.

They are a fun family dog and are equally at home with people of all ages. Being clean-cut with little to no doggy odour, they make an ideal house companion.

Registration on the Dogs Australia national pedigree database occurs after the pups are born and is the responsibility of the Breeder. The Breeder must hold a Breeder’s Prefix (a registered Kennel Name issued after completing education requirements) and must be a current financial member to register a litter.

It is a requirement that all puppies are identified with a microchip prior to registration and, for some breeds, there is a requirement to submit health-testing results for both parents with the litter registration application.

Once accepted, every puppy in the litter will be issued with Pedigree 'Papers' confirming their registration, listing their microchip number, s*x, colour, breed as well as displaying a three-generation family tree.

Important! Registration with Dogs Victoria/Dogs Australia is different from Local Council registration required by Victorian state laws and is also different to registration of the animal details on a licensed microchip registry.

The Biewer, pronounced (Beeva) originated in Hunsruck, Germany in 1984. The Biewer Terrier is an elegant, longhaired, uniquely coloured toy terrier with a breed signature ponytail. The coat parts down the middle, hanging straight and evenly on both sides of the body as though a comb has been used to part it.

The Biewer Terrier is an elegant, longhaired, tri-coloured toy terrier whose only purpose in life is to love and be loved. They maintain a charming, whimsical attitude well into adulthood. Carrying around a toy or two is not surprising. Although mischievous at times, they are obedient and make a loyal companion.

The Biewer Terrier is hypoallergenic and, therefore, a great companion for those who typically have allergies.
