President & Training Coordinator: Pascalene Houseman
[email protected] Auckland Canine Agility Club has been training agility dogs since 1991. We are a dedicated bunch of enthusiastic and keen competitors. Our instructors are all experienced handlers who have competed at senior level and freely give their time to teach and encourage others to

get the best from themselves and their dogs. The club trains every Friday 6.30pm at Waikaraka Park, on the corner of Neilson St and Captain Springs Rd, Onehunga. We also offer beginners classes twice a year, these will be advertised on our page, let us know if you are interested in joining the next one. You are welcome to visit us on a training night to observe and see if this is for you and your dog. The sport of agility is suitable for all sizes and breeds of dogs, including mixed breeds. It is an active sport and dogs need a general level of good health & fitness (including not being over-weight), reasonable off lead control and a basic level of obedience. We only train dogs after they have reached 18 months of age and do not recommend beginning to train dogs older than 6 years.

Congratulations to Waikato Agility Group - WAG on a wonderful 30th Anniversary show!

A few of our ACAC members had a great time competing on some really great, testing courses. They provided an opportunity to practice skills in the ring and a competitive environment which for most dog and handler combinations is very different to training environments.

For some of our ACAC newbie members who are considering having a go at a ribbon trial next month: a 'disqualification', or 'DQ' can be just as valuable in your training journey, so make sure you set your own goals and we'll all be there to help you celebrate your form of success.

Below are the formal results for our members:

- 18th Suse & Ted

It was really wonderful to see so many of our ACAC members participate in the Counties Agility Champs this weekend. Everyone steps into the ring with different criteria for what a successful run looks like, and I think it’s fair to say that most of us achieved some personal wins we’ve been training towards. So, let’s start by celebrating all our dogs (and handlers) for their individual achievements this weekend!

However, it is quite hard to report on personal achievements and they dont tend to come with fancy ribbons, so below are the formal results:

Starters 1
- Suse & Ted 7th
- Jo & Hela 8th

Starters 2
- Ellen & Digby 2nd (clear)
- Michael & Poppy 13th
- Suse & Ted 16th

🧨ACAC Results JDT Benefit Show 6 X Jumpers Champ Event, June 2024🧨

We had a good ACAC presence at the recent show in Cambridge this past weekend (29-30 June 2024)!💪 Each and every ACAC member that participated in the championship event did beautiful work, which resulted in individuals reaching their own personal small goals and some members walking away with clear rounds and pretty green and blue ribbons. We are very proud of all our members’ efforts over the weekend!! 💛💙💛💙

A huge congratulations to Sandra & Flynn, and Janetta & Cheetah, who now have sufficient Jumpers B wins (a total of 3 wins in the class) to gain their JDX title and graduate to Jumpers A! 🎉🎉🎉
Another huge congratulations to Effy & Midna who now qualify to graduate to Jumpers B on 1 win and 3 points and gain their JD title! 🎉🎉🎉

A huge thank you to all who lent their helping hands this weekend at the Show. We're deeply thankful for the exceptional support from our non-member scribes, George, Donna, Diana, and Ingrid. Their commitment to our cause made a remarkable impact. A special shout-out to Ronnie for spearheading the coffee service, a clever tactic that significantly bolstered our fundraising efforts. Our heartfelt thanks also extend to Suse Partner for graciously providing the gazebos. We're particularly grateful to those who enlisted family members and friends, whose involvement played a pivotal role in ensuring the smooth flow of the show. Mariane and Ellen, your exemplary management as show managers did not go unnoticed; your dedication was truly inspiring. And to all the ring managers, your tireless efforts are deeply appreciated.
