Approval for the Dances with Dogs Club to become a social club under the auspices of the Canine Control Council (Qld) t/as Dogs Queensland was received on 1 May 2009.
Social Club
During the first year of operation, thanks to the commitment and support of a number of people, the Club was very active and grew to almost 50 members, the Club’s financial position strengthened and it conducted a range of
activities for members.
Due to the generosity of the Toowoomba Dog Obedience Club and Dogs Qld, the Club obtained sound equipment for use at competitions and training activities. Approval for the Club to operate as an affiliate of Dogs Qld was granted, effective from 1 January 2010. The main benefit of achievement of this status was that it facilitated the Club’s organisation and conduct of DWD competitions, something which is not within the ability of a social club.
