The APDT NZ Mission and Vision Statements lead the way in dog training ethical standards. Be a part of this growing society.
APDT Mission: To promote human-dog relationships of understanding and trust by offering education in canine behaviour and effective, up to date, dog friendly training methods and skills.
APDT Vision: All dogs are effectively trained through dog-friendly techniques and therefore are lifelong companions in a relationship based on mutual respect and trust.
APDT is a well established organization in other countries including the United States, Canada, United Kingdom and Australia. After many years of support and alliance with APDT Australia it was officially formed here in New Zealand as an independent entity on 1st May 2009.
The APDT NZ “Smarter Trainers, Better Dogs” conference will be packed with up to date information, trade stalls, professionally recognized speakers and many delegates both professional and domestic from throughout the dog world of New Zealand. This is a great opportunity to be part of something exciting right from inception.
