Queenstown Dog Agility Club

01/01/2025

Queenstown Dog Training Club provides agility training to local dogs and their owners with the intention of increasing knowledge and building strong relationships between owners and their pets. The club has been happily training at the Lake Hayes Showgrounds for the past five years. Unfortunately the loss of our storage there has meant we can no longer train there. We are therefore on the lookout for a new training grounds. The main criteria is a flat area of at least 30x30 metres with some storage. As a club, we’re prepared to put in the hard yards to make an area work if anyone knows of a space we could utilise.

Reading Cinemas is having an advanced screening of this cute wee family movie on Father’s Day, and if that piques the interest of anyone you know tell them to come to our fun run day on 28 September at The Church in Gibbston Valley to see our demo/have-a-go set-up in real life 🐶🎥🎞️🐕

If you've ever thought 'I don't think I can do dog agility, I can't run fast enough', then Teresa is the inspiration you're looking for. Nothing holds her back, but now she needs help from the dog community. QDAC, can you step up?

Jess and Sarah, two of QDAC’s junior members, competed this weekend at the South Island interschools champs. Jess and Zoom won both the experienced agility and experienced jumper titles. Jess also picked up a 3rd in experienced jumpers with Flare. Sarah, having her first time out competing, came second in open jumpers (competitors are assigned a dog at random and have 10 minutes to learn how to run it). Jess got 3rd in the same class with little Nugget, a border collie x papillon. Between the two girls they gained enough points to take the Top Schools trophy back to its rightful home at Wakatipu High School.
