Training gets even better on Monday nights here at Oakridge Hall for All as the evenings get lighter...roll on Spring. It’s been a long winter.
 
Our Good Citizens Class are getting ready for their Bronze, Silver and Gold tests, which are now taking place on Saturday, 10 April. Meanwhile our Beginners Training Courses continue to be very well attended. Puppy Class can get busy too so we’ve drafted in extra help to make sure our new pups and their trainers each get the attention they need.
 
Our Anne Bussey Training Weekend was excellent. Participants could either train their dogs with Anne or learn by watching. In addition to humour and endless patience, Anne breaks down complex things into simple steps enabling everyone to make good progress. We all took a lot away from the course and left enthused – and well fed! Here’s to our next course.
 
Soon it will be time for The Hampshire Rally again. This friendly inter club obedience competition is a good day out for all the teams taking part. It’s on Bank Holiday Monday, 3rd May, all day, in War Memorial Park. It’s great fun to see dogs and their owners working at different levels from beginners to the very advanced. Anyone can come and watch.

We continue, as always, to keep our costs as low as possible as a not for profit club...and we’re still the only Kennel Club registered one locally. Do come along and see what we do!
