December 2015 - A great year for the club with many amazing achievements from the members. For those competing, huge successes but just as important are the many, many puppies who have come through the doors and learned so much with their owners. We are very proud to have introduced them all to clicker training. Going to finish this year off with a lovely photo from Bob in the beginner class.
Merry Christmas and a happy healthy 2016
October 2015 - Our last Rally Trial of the year and the most successful to date. Super proud of everyone and their achievements.
Archie - qualified in Level 1 and Level 2 . This now gives Archie three certficates at Level 1 meaning he has now achieved this level and can put the letters RL.1. after his name. Only one more level 2 to go and he has won out of this level as well.
Charlotte - qualified in Level 1 and Level 2. This is her third certificate in both levels taking her up to Level 3 . She also now has the qualification of RL1,EX and RL2 after her name.
Nevis and Dusk - Nevis gained his third Level 1 gaining him the title RL.1EX, and Dusk obtained her third Level 2 gaining her the title RL2EX.
The EX in the title means the dog achieved a minimum score of 195 out of 200 in all 3 certificates
