I know there was one place near me that did agility but it was more of a general outdoors training/socialisation with the training exercises being for agility. Lots of fun. I'll try and find the name of it.
Thank you We did some agility last year, but the only place we can get to by public transport is 12 miles/1.5 hours away by bus and only in the summer, and if it's not raining, as it's outdoors. We also had the problem that it often rains there but not here and vice-versa so we missed few because of that.

He hated the see-saw and fell off, which also put him off the A-frame and catwalk. The last session he just kept eyeballing all the other dogs especially one that kept eyeballing him, and wouldn't relax enough to do much except pop over some jumps in the corner.

Then the problem with the bluddy local yobs started, and he's just far too stressed & reactive to anything & everything now to think about anything except a behaviourist
