2012 Training Places Available

Due to the number of rescue dogs we are currently helping, K9 Interaction is increasing the number of 'fun agility' lessons we do to raise funds! Group lessons are on a Thursday and Friday morning, a Saturday afternoon, and we are considering other days, too. We also offer 1-2-1s and 4-hour workshops. Our breeds range from Jack Russells to Greyhounds, so the groups are kept small. We train outside in an enclosed walled area but do have facilities to go inside if the weather is against us. Fees are paid on a monthly basis - £30 for 4 lessons to be used at any lesson but within that month. Rescue dogs, difficult dogs and complete beginners are more than welcome. We are in North Hertfordshire. Please ring Alison on tel. 01462 790844 or email: k9interaction@btinternet.com for more details. (25/01/12)
