Agility Classes:

Our Classes are run by Miranda Frankham 01908 605622 Email. She teaches agility at all levels, from complete beginners to grade 7 competition. Arthur Reed teaches agility for level 5's upwards on Thursday mornings, please contact Fran (01908 397236) for further details. So come along and enjoy. 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 doing extremely well in agility. Our smallest dog is a very tiny Jack Russel/Bichon cross. Our largest is an exceptionally large German Shepherd. Competing in agility is great fun for both dog and owner. Fran Griffin now only runs one class here, and via invitation only. Karen Parker runs agility classes on Saturday mornings and may be contacted on 01908 309987 Email.

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 well known person in agility with her dogs winning many - many classes, as well as appearing at Crufts numerous times.

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.


 

Available classes:

 

Please note, all classes are currently suspended due to the weather conditions badly affecting our field.

Agility for complete beginners: Sundays at mid-day with Miranda Frankham. Dogs need to be sociable and able to come when called reliably to enable them to participate. To book a place please call Miranda on 01908 605622, or email

Saturday mornings: fun agility training with Karen Parker. To join your dog must be over 18 months old, well socialised, physically very fit, and be able to come when called very reliably when other dogs are present. To book please contact Karen either by email or phone 01908 309987.

 

Please note we do NOT take dogs for agility who have issues with people, or with other dogs. Agility is NOT a place for aggressive dogs, nor should it be!!!
