What will I need?
When training, you will need to bring treats (in a tub or pot - we recommend that you do not bring treats in a plastic bag as these are easily swallowed by dogs and are fiddly). You will also need a toy - one's without a squeaker are best, so not over-excite other dogs.
Ensure that you bring dog grooming equipment.
We recommend that you use a flat collar and standard type lead. We do not permit check-chains. If you are using a training harness, ‘Halti’ or ‘Gentle Leader’ head-collar these are fine, but we do not recommend using a Flexi-Lead for training.
Please ensure that your dog is kept on their lead at all times unless you are required to remove the lead by your instructor for a particular exercise.
Please attach an Identity Disc to your dog’s collar. According to the law this must have your name, address and telephone number on it. You can add other information should you wish, but we recommend that you do not include the dog's name on the disc.
Cleaning up after your dog is necessary so please bring your poop scoop!
Remember we train whatever the weather so we recommend that you wear suitable clothing. Comfortable footwear is always required. Please make sure that you are wrapped up warm and wear waterproof clothing when the weather is bad. Please bring a dog coat if your dog needs one.
As training is all outdoors, it is not essential to wear a face covering, but you are very welcome to if you prefer.
