Paula has trained guide dogs for 28 years and has successfully competed in agility, rally obedience, hoopers and heelwork to music with a variety of breeds. Our aim is for our dogs and handlers to have lots of fun and learn new skills whilst deepening the bond between dog and owner. Paula has been involved in training dogs and their owners for over 30 years. Paula owns an elderly crossbreed who

she competed in agility with and he worked at G5 in kennel club competitions. Paula is a registered judge of heel work to music and worked a Standard Poodle at Intermediate level. Paula also competed in Rally competitions, and her dog Bailey whizzed up to level 5 and qualified excellent at all the previous levels. Just before his retirement Paula and Bailey found the world of hoopers, which opened up another brilliant sport for dogs to them. Paula is a qualified CHUK instructor and a Platinum Hoopers UK instructor. Lucy came to Paula's classes at only 11 yeas old with her Springer Spaniel Floss. Lucy's natural ability and caring attitude shone from the beginning and within a few years Lucy was assisting Paula with the classes. Now Lucy is an instructor in her own right and was the youngest ever CHUK instructor to qualify and then topped this off a year later by becoming the youngest ever advanced CHUK (Canine Hoopers Uk ) instructor. Lucy currently works Zoe a Working Cocker Spaniel and they had just made their agility competition debut when lockdown hit, so they re raring to get back to competitions. They have competed in one hoopers competition - the Tri Score tornament were the Agility Antics Loopy Hoopers team gained 9th place in their first ever outing with a team member down( as Bailey, Paulas's dog had to retire just a few weeks before), but the team still smashed 9th place. Our other members were Erin and Lexie and Ella and Gizmo ,2 of our hoopers class members.

I ll be honest, when this rescue dog, came along from Manchester dog home, I was a little bit worried as he wasn't the normal breed you associate with hoopers , and I honestly didn't think from a physical point of view he would manage. In addition to that, he was scared of the hoop, tunnel and barrel, all the basic equipment :) But blimey he was powered by the love of Blossom Dimambro , Gill and Carl . Today, he achieved his Garnet course negotiation award, for 20 clear rounds. He still faces surgery to aid his breathing, but he is a total credit to his owners, and a credit to himself.

Spooky training for Halloween jumping through the haunted hoop and circling the tomb stone. We then danced to Ghostbusters and The Monster Mash.
