    Hi,

    I want to bring my 11 month lab to obedience training and have contacted a few places in Kildare but not much success with them as most of them only do sessions on weekdays and a saturday would be more ideal.

    Would anyone have any suggestions of trainers in Kildare preferably close to Newbridge?

    Thanks for the help!

    Is Enfield too far?
    There's a girl doing training classes there on Saturday mornings who's really great... Positive training methods only :)

    Edited to add: Feck... I see it's almost 50 mins. Probably too far.

    Just checked, its about 45 minutes away so probably not ideal but it's an option if I can't find alternatives.

    Looking for close places so I wouldn't have my dog in the car for too long.

    Could you send me on her details?

    *Edit* Just saw your edit after I replied!

    On saturday mornings in Naas, the DOG TREANOR does obedience and puppy classes. In good weather outdoors in Monread, in bad weather she uses the indoor arena in Kill equestrian - only 15 mins or so from Newbridge. Her facebook page is: The Dog Treanor (her name is Jenny Treanor) or 085 814 0001

    She helps us at our rescue/shelter, and a friend is taking her nutty springer rescue there for classes :)
