Lyons Township Dog Training Club

LTDTC offers a variety of levels of classes in training people and their dogs in obedience, agility, and rally. All are welcome to train with us!
(2)

First, we are a non-profit organization offering training for purebred dogs and mixed breed dogs at all levels of experience from puppies to the seasoned competitive obedience dog. Second, we are an organization, a group of dog owners who love dogs and enjoy activities with our dogs. We sponsor and attend many obedience events both in the US and in Canada. Many of our members are involved in other

dog activities such as conformation, tracking, agility, herding, nose work, water rescue, search and rescue, Companion Dogs for Independence, and others. These members can put you in touch with organizations that train and promote these activities. Lyons provides a valuable service by teaching owners to train their dogs to be canine good citizens. We sincerely feel, in this time of rising anti-dog sentiment and media coverage focused on irresponsible dog ownership, a well-trained dog serves as a good example to others and is a joy to own.

Dog hair on furniture is like a badge of honor for pet owners. It's like we're showing off our fur babies' latest art projects!

We have wrapped up our 2024 Rally & Obedience Trials, and we couldn't have done it without the fabulous contributions from everyone involved.

A huge thank you to our incredible judges: Dianne Allen, Charles Kline, Mary Simpson, and Sandy Gould. We also appreciate the tireless efforts of our event planners, stewards, and volunteers who worked hard to create a well-run and fun environment. Finally, we want to thank our exhibitors; your participation is what makes these events possible. Whether you faced challenges or celebrated successes, you've all learned and grown through the experience.

🎆 Happy 4th of July from LTDTC! 🎆

As we celebrate Independence Day, let's remember to keep our furry friends safe and happy. Here are some tips to ensure your dogs have a stress-free holiday:

Keep them indoors during fireworks to reduce anxiety.
Create a safe space with their favorite toys and blankets.
Play calming music to drown out loud noises.
Make sure your dog is microchipped and wearing a collar with ID tags.
And, of course, enjoy the day with some fun training sessions and playtime! Share your festive photos and tag us – we'd love to see how you're celebrating with your pups. 🐶❤️💙

Wishing everyone a joyful and safe 4th of July!

🐾 PSA: Remember to protect your furry friends' paws in the summer heat! Hot pavement can burn like a frying pan, causing pain and injury to our dogs. 🌞🐶 Keep walks to cooler times of the day or use booties to keep those paws safe and happy!

A friendly reminder because we would love to see you all there!

Congratulations to all our incredible members and students who have earned new titles or advanced to the next class level! We're thrilled to see such amazing handler and dog teams achieving greatness together. Keep up the fantastic work, everyone! 🏅🐾🎉

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who participated in our agility trials this past weekend. Witnessing the remarkable handling and the joy shared between people and their dogs was truly inspiring! None of this would have been possible without the unwavering support of our exhibitors, members, volunteers, and judges. We eagerly anticipate seeing you all again in July for another exciting event!
