🚨 Adelaide Dog Owners — New Laws, Big Fines. Is Your Dog Ready? 🚨
South Australia has officially introduced tougher penalties for irresponsible dog ownership, including fines of $25,000+ for dog attacks, higher penalties for dangerous dogs, and increased powers for councils to act on wandering and nuisance behaviour.
These changes are designed to keep our community safe — but they’re also a wake-up call for owners.
At The Well-Mannered Mutt, we’re here to support you through these changes with training that focuses on confidence, control, and calm behaviour in the real world.
💥 Our training helps you:
• Build reliable obedience under distraction
• Strengthen recall and loose-lead walking
• Reduce reactivity and risky moments
• Understand your dog’s behaviour before it escalates
• Become a confident, responsible dog owner under SA’s new expectations
Now is the perfect time to invest in your dog’s safety, your peace of mind, and your community.
