Rapport Show Dog Training

29/08/2024

We have just noticed that our auto response message to any direct messages hasn't been working properly, so apologies to those who have been waiting for a reply regards training.
At the moment, work commitments are taking priority so I don't have any time to arrange classes or one to ones at present. There just aren't enough days in the week, and I'm really sorry to disappoint everyone. Looking at the diary there is currently one free Wednesday in September and two in October, which doesn't make it feasible to plan training at present. I'll keep you all updated and let you know as soon as we are back up and running again, promise!
Thanks for your patience and understanding,
David.

Happy Monday everyone!
You will have noticed there has been a lack of training dates posted for April. Having given this (busy!) month a lot of consideration, I have decided that training won’t be starting back again until May.
My fantastic new role at Agria Pet Insurance needs my full attention at the moment, and this - combined with our current litter of Border Terrier puppies, lambing of the Annavale & Biggarburn Shetland Sheep, and Gavin’s shoulder operation - mean time is very precious this month…and that’s before we even think about training our own new youngsters, in between judging appointments, breed seminars, and shows!
I’m really looking forward to being back next month, and thank you all for your patience and understanding at this chaotic time!

We are looking forward to welcoming a lot of you to this weekend's social training day on Sunday at Broughton. Groups start at 10am or 12.30pm. Details have been sent to those who haven't been before, giving you all directions to the hall.

We are looking forward to a busy and fun day of training! Please bring with you any refreshments you need, treats for your dog, but be aware there is no cage space available in the hall for dogs - those bringing two dogs will have to work them from their cars.

For those who have paid the £10 deposit already, please remember to bring the remaining balance of £15 with you on the day (or pay by BACS/PayPal on the day).

It’s an exciting time folks - Crufts passes have landed!
The fabulous team at FDS - Fosse Data Systems Ltd. have issued emails to everyone who has entered online to say that Crufts passes can now be printed.
Remember to print these and take them to the show, and have them to hand when you get to the entrance doors for quick and easy access to the show with your dogs. It is essential they are PRINTED as electronic copies won’t be accepted at the NEC.

Thank you to everyone who came along to training this morning, coping with the last minute changes in arrangements owing to the heating failure in the hall.
The larger group training worked so well - 17 dogs and handlers all working perfectly in harmony with each other 👌🏼👌🏼
Well done to everyone on all your achievements today - no matter how large or small, every step forward is progress 🌟 🤩

Looking forward to seeing everyone for training this morning. Please remember new start time 11am, and wear layers as the hall heating is on the blink! We will all soon warm up as we have a busy morning ahead 🐾🐾
