Tamahunga Trappers and The Forest Bridge Trust are organising FREE Kiwi Aversion Training for dogs.
In preparation for the kiwi translocation we are engaging a professional dog trainer to train all dogs living in, and/or visiting, the area around Tamahunga – Matakana, Pakiri, Whangaripo, Leigh, Omaha Valley.
This is for dog that haven’t been trained as well as a refresher for those who are due one.
Training is on Saturday 4th March at the Warkworth Showgrounds.
Register your dog for the training today!
For more information and to register your dog for training please email tamahungatrappers@hotmail.co.nz
Any dogs, whatever size or breed, despite being well trained to come when called, can kill a kiwi if given the chance. That’s because dogs simply can’t resist the strong smell of kiwi!
You can get your dog specially trained to avoid kiwi it it comes across one. Kiwi Aversion Training teaches a dog to ignore the signs and smells of a kiwi. Most dogs can learn this avoidance behaviour, and they learn it quickly. They will remember it for about 12 months, so it is important for dogs to annual refresher training.
