Awesome show yesterday even with the weather not being as lovely as it could have been!

Neo took full advantage of the best seat in the house and enjoyed watching the dogs running in ring 2 whilst ring 1 was undergoing a course change.

The new fencing is working beautifully! Strong metal barriers covered to remove the visual between the 2 rings for the dogs.

Huge thank you to all of the wonderful competitors that really make for the best atmosphere at these shows!

Massive thank you to our awesome judges who set some beautiful courses for us all to play on!

Thanks to everyone who helps and makes these shows possible!

Roll on February! Entries are now LIVE!

The TC 'Christmas Quacker!' December show update!

We are changing our fencing and trialing a new fence at this show, which we may continue with going forwards. There will be a solid barrier fence between the two rings with much less visibility into each ring for the dogs.

We are also hoping to take delivery of 2 NEW NON-SLIP mats for the entry/exit area for ring 2!

Christmas fancy dress, hats etc all very much encouraged for the Christmas show 🎅 there may well be some Christmas goodies up for grabs for the best dressed handlers!

Along with the usual fabulous rosettes, medals and prizes, it's gonna be a duckin' good 'un!

BRAND NEW
On top of our regular content AND regular uploads, we are adding a BRAND NEW FEATURE!
Course of the Month
2 courses per month, 1 per sport: 1 hoopers and 1 agility.
Each month a course will be uploaded along with several videos:
- a physical walk through of the course looking at handling options.
- a training breakdown and looking at different bits of the couse
- several different dogs (of different levels and breeds) training and working on the course
- working the course from around the clock - so extreme distance handling, this is good as it highlights any weak points in our training and gives us a focus of what to work on next, it also highlights our strong points
BONUS
some months will also have the course run, analysed and trained in reverse!
All levels will be covered with these courses - we will make sure to use different level courses so there is always something for everyone to work on!
INCLUDED AS PART OF THE COMPLETE PACKAGE!
JUST AGILITY or JUST HOOPERS will only be able to access the one per month for their own sport.

Final day teaching I'm California

Right before the run, the handlers words were "oh he'll NeVer do this!!!"

Rey is a fabulous poodle that a year ago, was a velcro dog with a running handler....

Rey and his handler have been training with us online, we travelled out to see them last year and do some training, we have worked with them online throughout the year and it's wonderful to see the improvement in them both!

They didn't expect this challenge, but I knew they could do it!

Amazing few days teaching for Morgan Hill dog sports in California :)

Great seeing some of the guys from last year, some online students and those working through the book 😍🤩

Can't believe tomorrow is the last day of teaching before heading back to England!
