1. All dogs on the club grounds must hold current vaccination
certificates. No dog is to be brought to club grounds if it has a
contagious disease or infested with vermin.
2. All dogs must be on leads before getting out of the car and must
remain on lead at all times whilst on the club grounds. The only
exceptions are when you are in class and under command of the
Instructor in an advanced obedience or agility class, or you are an
Instructor.

supplied but you will need to take any droppings home with you.
6. Mistreating of dogs on club grounds will not be tolerated.
7. No person under the age of 13 years old is to be in control of a dog at
any time on club grounds. In ‘special’ circumstances consideration may
