that said, I have my long term people, but they have pretty advanced dogs.

I got the impression though that most people didn't do any training with their dogs between classes and they weren't really that enthusiastic - he would often ask for suggestions for different things to do (and even tried a few things himself) but no-one seemed interested.
The same guy runs our 'fun' agility classes and those are pretty good - he makes them fun for us and the dogs.
How do you fancy moving down this way and setting up a training class...I'm sure it would go down a treat
