Agility Lessons

I run non-competitive, fun, sociable Agility classes for dogs at Therapaws Sidlesham, Near Chichester West Sussex.

These classes can also help with recall, waiting and general control.

They are perfect for anyone and everyone, enjoyable for both dog and owner, and suitable for all abilities, in a relaxed environment.

If you would prefer some more individual training then I also offer 1 to 1 and 2 to 1 lessons.

Canine Hoopers lessons

I also teach fun, non-competitive Canine Hoopers lessons at Therapaws.

These lessons are low-impact and suitable for dogs and owners of all ages. Handling the dogs from a distance means you can still take part in canine sports, without needing to run.

Again these lessons can help with recall, waiting and general control.

These lessons are also available on a 1 to 1 or 2 to 1 basis.

  • "Catherine is an incredibly knowledgeable dog trainer. Her experience with rescues was so helpful when I brought my Sprollie home. She helped me to understand her fear and how to create a loving and trusting bond with her. I couldn’t be more grateful. Catherine is so compassionate and reliable. She makes sure Zelly has both the mental and physical stimulation she needs. I completely trust her with my dog and it’s all one to one attention which couldn’t be better. Catherine makes her agility and Hoopers classes all about fun and bonding - both for the humans and the dogs! Everyone has a great time. There’s no pressure at all and it’s such a great way of building respect and love with my dog."

  • “I highly recommend agility at Therapaws. My working strain cocker spaniels have all benefited a huge amount from classes and 1 - 1 lessons with Catherine. Over 16 yrs I have run 4 dogs, all spaniels but all very different. It helps with obedience, focus, socialisation and control”
