I have a dog. Can she be brought to club events?

There are times that dogs can be at club events but they must always be on a lead and under control. Please clean up after them at all times. However, there will be times when dogs are not able to be taken on trips or events due to external reasons e.g. visiting or driving through national parks, bated areas, landowner discretion.

Please always check with the trip leader or Trip Co-ordinator prior to the event.
