I have owned and trained dogs since I was 8 years old, but have been training and showing pedigree dogs for around 9 years now. In partnership with Adrian Dornford-Smith, we own the affix FiveNinePlus (English Kennel Club), and train, compete and show with all of them in obedience and agility as well as the show ring. We currently own three Tibetan Terriers and one Spanish Water Dog.
We both currently train and instruct obedience and agility with Glandore Dog Training Club of Ulster, and are involved with several breed clubs, too. We travel all around Ireland through the show season to compete in our three disciplines.
