Training
Our classes are split between Homewood (ME16 area) and Leybourne Riding Stables. Puppy classes, Good Citizen and all daytime classes are at Homewood, either in the field or in the training building and most evening Agility & Hoopers classes are at Leybourne. We do have Monday evening Agility classses at Homewood.
Training with Maidstone Activity Dogs
All of our training is reward based.. This means when your dog does something positive it earns a reward (Toy or Treat). Dogs learn through repetition and being rewarded for the correct behaviour. For any class you take with us, your dog will get the opportunity to earn lots of rewards.
Classes are kept small so each team has plenty of time training under the supervision of an instructor. No matter what the class , all dogs attending must be happy to work around other dogs and have focus for the handler. (puppy class excluded as this is what we teach them!).
We are a Kennel Club Listed Status Club and Offer Agility classes from Beginner to competition level and train on the most up to date Kennel club approved competition level equipment. All of our instructors have competing experience in the higher grades.
We run Hoopers classes from Beginner to competition level and our instructors are qualified with Canine Hoopers World and Hooperholics and run progress awards as well. We train on baseless hoops and chutes which is safest for our dogs.
