On google can only find west lancs K9 centre which is very expensive from what Ive heard . Just checked distance from where me and Tipsy live and its actually 15 mins quicker to get to Runcorn too. Just wish I didnt have to go over the Runcorn bridge it scares me

There is an other I will try and find it.

I have seen the one in Widnes it is just before you go over the bridge. I will see if I can find details for that one. I saw it by accident when I was going somewhere else

There was one Widnes way that moved to Rainford way I think? We went to the Rainford one but they shut down after moving around a lot and arguments between the trainers. It was a shame but it went downhill abit (IMO).
There is one by Bold Heath that we went to as well but they took it really really seriously and wanted you to do heaps of practise at h ome etc. They were a bit too pushy for my liking and had Cosmo doing the Aframe with them holding his collar!!! He almost pulled one of their arms out of the socket and I was very concerned about his neck. Lots of collar holding and yanking and lots of dogs. was all very stressy.

There is a 'fun' agility thing at The Dog Barn near Rainford. I haven't been or heard anything about it and don't know the trainer. There is an obedience trainer there too who is a bit too old school I have heard,so hopefully it isn't the same person. (I was told that by someone reliable I haven't been to a class).

Personally I avoid west lancs and K92000, that's all I will say on them.

Karen Ingram does agility near Runcorn and she's supposed to be lovely? Is hers the Sutton Weaver one.

There is certainly demand for classes, sadly it's finding somewhere to do them.

Yes it is Karen ingram, I've heard good things about her

I went to the one in rainford a few times and enjoyed it but that was before it closed. I had the same stressy experience at the bold heath one thou- too many dogs and stress for me lol
