ABOUT US...

Hi! My name is Jodie and I am the agility instructor at Hartson Dog Training.
I am a stage 2 qualified BIPDT instructor, owning five border collies and a chihuahua which I currently train in agility with.
I have trained dogs since the age of 12 and have competed in the sport for the past 5 years, this includes qualifying for the UKA Grand Finals in 2021, 2022 and 2023, as well as competing  in the YKC agility at Crufts multiple times, and more recently competing in the Novice Cup Semi-Finals at Olympia/London International Horse Show 2025.

In addition to this, I've competed in obedience competitions, qualified for the KCGDS semi-finals, and achieved a trick dog champion title with one of my dogs. I have worked with a variety of breeds, including chihuahuas, labradors, spaniels and terriers.
