Competitive Obedience Training with Shirley
I have had dogs all my life and have been competing at Kennel Club Obedience Shows for a long time.
I currently compete with 3 rescue collies, all three are working the highest 'Class C' and one is also in the top level (Championship C)
I have had 5 dogs qualified to compete at Championship C level competition, all being regularly placed and one becoming the coveted Obedience Champion (Reesa)
who has competed in the Crufts Obedience Championship on several occasions. A video showing Reesa competing at Crufts is below.
I also run basic puppy training classes and do behavioural work with pet dogs.

To date every dog I have had come to training with me on a regular basis has gone on to win classes at Kennel Club obedience shows
The many breeds I have trained include Dobermans, Greyhounds, German Shepherds, Briards, Beagles many Crossbreeds, Corgi's and many Border Collies
Several have reached Open C standard including Championship C level

- I offer Competitive Obedience Training to anyone who would like to extend their dogs training. It is time intensive to train a dog to competition level so its essential that you are keen and you would need to have the time to spend enjoying training your dog.
- Any breed of dog can learn to do competition style training and they can start at any age (the younger the better!).
- My training is totally reward based 'clicker type' methods, high rewarding to motivate and allow your dog to really enjoy the various elements involved.
- Food and toys are used. I teach the hand touch/hand follow methods.
- Everything is geared around the dog being motivated to enjoy obedience.
- Most of the training is One to One until a basic understanding is developed and then group sessions can be arranged.
- See below for details of what is involved in this hobby (click on the 'buttons')
- Below is also a video of one of my appearances in the Crufts Obedience Championships and there is also a 'promo video' of obedience.
One to One training is in the area local to East Grinstead with group sessions in Forest Row and sometimes Crowborough area
