When we launched the Quattro K9 Training Centre, our primary focus was on basic control work. However, with the introduction of the KUSA Rally schedule, we saw an opportunity to expand our curriculum. Although we had incorporated a form of Rally in our courses, it differed from the new KUSA discipline, which quickly gained popularity and attracted large entries at shows.

The one-on-one training sessions are flexible and tailored to individual needs, whether it's for high-level training or simply allowing the dog to play safely off-lead in an enclosed arena. Whatever your requirements, Sam ensures an enjoyable and productive session.
