We are getting bigger and better
We have so much new stuff coming up with Kirkbourne. New training sessions. Watch out for new venues too for training. SPANIELS be ready w ehave some new stuff for you too. Too much to mention and get it all out there but its going to be brilliant. Being with kirkbourne family will bring the best out in you and your dog. We have to take small steps to ensure each task we show our dog is understood and sinks in.
I myself are offering one to ones in thirsk and I may be tempted to Doncaster now and then. Mark is also offering lessons. If his dates dont fit in with your calender, send him a message and if he is free he will join you for a lesson. The one thing you get from kirkbourne is a trainer infront of you who has not just turned up and become a trainer over night. There are so many now with on line training and new classes. Most started with Kirkbourne even some of the UK trailers.
Stick with the best and we will help you.
Kind regards Darren
