Would you like to do agility with your dog? You will learn all you need to  correctly guide your dog around a course and how to use contact equipment safely.   Our jump heights  also include micro for tiny dogs and our contact equipment is full KC height. As agility is often highly arousing for dogs we can only accept dogs that do not become reactive towards other dogs whilst training, as you will be working off lead when taking your turn. You will  also need a reasonable level of recall. For agility we like them to be 10 months old or over to start (using puppy bumps rather than jumps)  until they are around a year old, and no full height contact equipment until they are around 14- 15 months old but we can get you started on lower height equipment as we have mini and midii trestles as well as full height. 

Classes are held on Wednesday and Saturday lunchtimes . FULL 

 I am a Canine Hoopers World Level 2 Instructor and Assessor. 

Hoopers is a relatively new dog sport  (similar in ways to agility), that is rapidly growing in popularity.  Hoopers is LOW impact making it suitable for dogs of all ages from puppies aged  5 months upwards to senior dogs.  

We will teach you how to guide your dog through hoops and tunnels and around barrels. You will learn to start running mini courses gradually increasing to full size courses over time. You will need some level of recall* Please note your dog must be happy to work around other dogs and people.. This is  a perfect starting point for those of you with young dogs wishing to go on to agility as you will learn all the foundations of handling. 

No prior experience is necessary just a willingness to have fun. We regularly hold in-house competitions with no pressure.just lots of fun to give you and your dog encouragement and confidence.
