Dog training in Devon

Hi, I was wondering if there's anywhere local to Exeter, Tiverton, Taunton etc that specialises in training GSD's?
I really want to get some proper training done with Riley before he gets too old and stubborn, and think a class of some sort would be better!

thanks

Hi I think there are loads of training clubs in Exeter.
I am in Torbay and I was recommended this one for agility but I think they do obedience too. www.devondogs.co.uk
I would go by recommendation always though, ask other dog walkers etc and you should soon get an idea of where to go and where to avoid.
Do not attend anything in Bovey Tracey. I know that is not Exeter but I have had really bad experiences there.
Good luck and if you find a good one please let me know. x

I am pleased you put the link on as I was wondering if there was such a thing as an agility holiday for dogs and their owners. I have bookmarked it.

If I ever get the house I want in a semi-rural area with land and a couple of rental cottages, I may offer dog-friendly holidays

I belong to that one Pam but it is nowhere near Exeter and very hard to get to.
Good in the Summer but totally inaccessible at this time of year due to icey lanes.
