Farnham Dog Training Society has been registered with the Kennel Club since 1961 and is a not for profit society run entirely by volunteers. We run courses on most Monday evenings during school terms at the Badshot Lea Village Hall 'The Kiln', Farnham, Surrey. The Kiln provides excellent facilities including a large hall, a foyer where we can offer extra help to individual dog owners and a safe outside area. They cost just £80 per ten week term, plus a £5 annual Society membership fee. Beginners courses from Monday 9th September 2024 are at 6.00pm (for young puppies) and 7pm. Dogs must be at least 14 weeks old and handlers 16 years old at the start of the sessions.
