Agility Classes have now moved to Bradwell Abbey:

Bradwell Abbey, provides a beautiful and safe training venue, well away from busy roads and fully enclosed.

Classes are run by Fran Griffin, and Miranda Frankham. Miranda teaches agility at all levels, from complete beginners to grade 7 competition. Agility is for dogs of all shapes and sizes, NOT JUST FOR COLLIES. There are many dogs of different breeds, mixed breeds, shapes and sizes who really enjoy agility. Our smallest dog is a very tiny Jack Russel/Bichon cross. Our largest is an exceptionally large German Shepherd. Competing at agility shows is great fun and provides wonderful socialisation for both dogs and humans as well as a great day/weekend away.

Our classes are kept small and friendly, in order that everyone has good quality time over the equipment, and not just 3 attempts and then sent home.

The video above and below is of Tallulah (Sea Tamarisk Moon Gazer) an Irish Setter owned by Fran Griffin. Alan Bray describes her as "Awesome Setter" and awesome she is both to train and handle!

Miranda Frankham is a very well known person in agility with her dogs winning many - many classes, as well as appearing at Crufts almost every year.

Agility isn't just about winning and getting placed. It is about the joy of doing something together with your dog. Both dog and human working together in unity and enjoying what they are doing.
