Training Philosophy

The ACWA Training philosophy emphasizes positive training techniques with your dog. The sport of agility is meant to be enjoyed by both the dog and handler. A flat buckle collar is ESSENTIAL for training.

ACWA is a CAWA (Canine Association of WA) Affiliated and ANKC Affiliated club (Australian National Kennel Council) club and training stresses ANKC rules. All ACWA Show n Go's, Mock Trials, Members Competitions, and Trials are CAWA sanctioned shows.
