From the start, we have been fortunate to enjoy superb training facilities at Kingswood Equestrian Centre, Albrighton. The venue is just off the A41 on the Staffordshire-Shropshire border between Telford and Wolverhampton. Our indoor venue has a top quality sand-fibre surface that is kept in good condition for our training sessions and agility shows. It is firm enough to be brilliant to run on, with some give for dogs when landing.
We are not an elitist club – we will train all types of dogs, and dogs of all heights, taking many complete beginners and bringing them up to the standard needed for success in competition. You don’t need a collie to do agility, and you don’t have to be a superfit handler either. But it does help to have a sense of humour, a willingness to learn and a lot of patience.
We are primarily a competing club – in that we take our agility seriously and want to work our dogs to the best of our abilities, and as a bonus be successful in the competition ring.
Agility Addicts members compete regularly at agility shows up and down the country. We work our dogs at all levels from Elementary through to Advanced and Championship.
We hold regular agility shows at our own training venue and elsewhere in the West Midlands, averaging about 10 shows a year.
As we know what hard work it is to run a successful agility show, we often offer our help on an individual or club basis, to judge or ring party at other clubs’ shows.
We play hard as well as train hard. We hold club competition nights for members, and at agility shows we socialise and camp together. And there’s the Christmas night out where we present the annual club awards, and Christmas agility party where we eat, drink, and play silly games with our dogs.
Occasionally we are asked to give agility displays at events in the area, and are happy to oblige as it gives our inexperienced handlers an opportunity to work their dogs in a different environment, and we get the chance to share our love of our sport with others.
