Melton Dog Obedience Club (MDOC) is a long-established community dog training club founded in 1979 that offers regular, hands-on obedience training and social opportunities for dog owners and their pets. The club runs weekly group obedience classes every Sunday that focus on socialization, leash manners, control, and building a solid foundation in obedience for both puppies and adult dogs. MDOC welcomes all ages and all breeds — from puppies to adult dogs — and encourages family participation, making sessions child- and partner-friendly so families can spectate or join in. The club emphasizes training using verbal and hand commands rather than relying on food rewards, and promotes respectful, well-mannered behavior such as good leash walking and enjoyable outings. Beyond training classes, MDOC fosters community through themed fun days (for example Halloween and Footy Day), fundraisers like BBQs and pie drives, and participation in inter-club competitions and local events such as parades and pet expos. The club’s atmosphere is described as inclusive and community-minded, aiming to help owners build rewarding relationships with their dogs through knowledge, goodwill, and active participation.
