Another vote for Sussex County Dog Training. They are fab. They run agility, one to one behaviour sessions, reactive Rover classes and they are starting Flyball in the Autumn

Just a word of warning - I booked and paid for the puppy class online. Made a number of calls to the mobile number on the website, sent an email - no one answered the phone, returned my calls or returned my email. I turned up for where the class was advertised only to be informed it hasn't been ran there for years!
I'm furious - have had to put a paypal dispute in an attempt to get my money back
