“It was action aplenty at Lawdogs Australia last weekend, after the doors were finally opened to the public, to view protection and detection puppies and adult dogs going through their training. Although the current puppies such as Jayah and Tyson are normally the crowd favourites as they begin the basics, there was a new arrival which stirred some interest. Three year old Ziva has moved in and brings with her a belly full of puppies, which will be old enough to feature in the demonstrations as they start training during the Christmas school holidays. Ziva arrived from Sydney and comes from excellent bloodlines including Czechoslovakia and German military and police.

These puppies sure will be a handful. For now though, Ziva is being treated like a queen with plenty of obedience and nutritional treats as she grows bigger and bigger at the kennel. Owner Matthew Hibberd said, it was great to finally be open and to see the looks on peoples faces as they learnt the story behind each dog and looked a the specialist training they undergo. Seeing such big and bold dogs enjoying their work and treating it like a game is a pleasure to watch and entertaining as things don’t always go as planned. Our largest dog Kai at nearly 50 kgs treated a tunnel as a table this week and then wondered why the top wasn’t quite big enough to sit on like usual. There are now seven dogs at the facility from young puppies learning the basics, through to a retired patrol dog. Most are involved in each show as we practise controlling suspects, bite work and use agility equipment all while the public are seated behind a safety fence. Shows are at 335 Church Road, The Summit and run for about one hour. More information can be found at www.lawdogsaustralia.com.au”

Just a quick update - show is going absolutely gangbusters, lots of rave reviews and has been quite busy with lots of people attending the shows. Looks like may be participating in tourist promotion through Warwick tourist information centre for the Christmas school holidays and may also be promoted on television show
