I can walk to my local training class, it is a puppyschool class. For ringcraft (although I still haven't gone yet :rolleyes:) that will be a 45 min each way job!!

...my first training club as a 10 min walk away with a great fun trainer but the hall got refirbished and the training club had to stop running. He had done a bit of training in all sorts to keep our interest up and it was always fun and overflowing with dogs.

.....  Ours is sort of a mix of both...they are training people for the good citizen but for competition too with trying to teach us footwork and 'straight' sits and the like. But the hall is vey small which is  shame.
