The East Anglian Whippet Club

 

Obedience

The EAWC is a Club that takes great pride in the Whippet as not just a show dog but a breed that makes a wonderful pet and working companion.

There is so much fun you can have when you own a Whippet, Lure Coursing, Racing, Agility, Obedience, Showing, Rabbiting, such is the versatility of the breed.

 

Obedience and the Whippet, two words that some of us have trouble putting together, but with the huge introduction of reward based training in the dog training world many breeds including Whippets are now taking part in competitions and award schemes.

 

Our fun competitions are aimed at encouraging not only obedience wannabes but also show dogs and oversize/older Whippets to join in the day and have some fun.
