I've heard there are Ringcraft classes at Newcastle & Birtley - does anyone know what day/times they are please? Or even Alnwick area.

We do go to our local Ringcraft at New Hartley (Tues evenings) but would like to do a couple of visits to unfamiliar ones with our puppy prior to his first show.

Theres one at Bowburn Tuesday night 7pm.

There are lots!  Tuesday nights at MyPetstop (Nr. Washington) 7.30, and also at Nettlesworth (Near Chester le Street)  Wednesday at 7.15 at The Dog House, Cold Hesledon Nr. Seaham (Newbottle Ringcraft), Thursday at Community Centre, Birtley (think 7.30) and Friday at Lanchester - will get details if you want this one.

I live near Stanhope,Weardale,are there any classes less than 25miles from me?

I live in Wolsingham!  I think the closest will be the one in Lanchester on Fridays, and I forgot that there is one in Leadgate, Consett on Wednesdays.
