History of the club
Our club was first set up to by Lydia who wanted to do more training
with her puppy Treacle when she left university. Spending hours in
the garden and playing on the agility equipment on your own is not
that much fun so she invited other people to come and train with
her.
To train agility you need to be in a class situation. This gets your
dog used to the movement, excitement and allows you to gain control
of your dog with distractions, this is an essential part of
successful agility training.
This is where it all began and now we have a successful dog training
club catering for many disciplines of dog training and competition.
The aim at Dig It Dog Training is to train dogs in a positive way,
without physical or verbal corrections. We want to train handlers to
bring out the best in their dogs. The results are dogs that are as
focused and driven about their work as their owners are about
training them.
