Hoopers
Hoopers
Hoopers is a fun sport in which your dog navigates a course of hoops and barrels, guided by you. It is an accessible, low-impact activity perfect for developing your communication with your dog. We welcome all breeds and ages of dog (above six months of age).
Our classes are structured in a way that means you won’t spend long periods standing around watching others work – we aim to keep people and dogs busy practicing skills, with opportunities to complete longer courses as you progress.
Classes run at 9am on Saturdays at The Dog Park, Reepham, LN3 4DU. Get in touch if you’re looking to have a go at something new with your dog!

Thanks to the course we managed to work out essential skills that our dog needed to be safe and happy. Charlotte promotes positive encouragement approach which resulted in our dog loving to work on tasks given and we all enjoy the results . Thank you CharlotterecommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Cannot recommend AniMate's Rethinking Reactivity course enough! Our 2.5 y/o German shepherd x retriever is dog reactive. Before the course we were 9/10 unable to see or pass dogs without incident. Week on week we saw big improvements with Gandalf. We have learned practical techniques and gained a deeper understanding of doggo body language and communication. With a focus on training the human as well as teaching the dog better ways of acting in situations, Charlotte and Alice have given us all some much needed confidence and many tools to use to manage any situation and continue our training. It is not an overnight cure for Gandalf's reactivity and we did not expect it to be. But the improvements we have seen already, having only completed the final session this week, are more than enough reinforcement that it is certainly working! Extremely valuable course with engineered scenarios to play out real life situations with the very calm, kind and understanding, Charlotte and Alice, ready to offer very helpful and non-judgmental advice. Thank you so much! 💛 ♥️ 🐕recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Would definitely recommend Charlotte to help with any training needs. Me and Jax have just finished the 6 week capable canines course, which provided a lot of helpful techniques and was lots of fun; it has definitely built on the relationship between me and Jax. We have had so many people comment on how they have noticed a change in Jax - it’s baby steps with him, but he is on the right track and that’s thanks to Charlotte’s help 🙂 We have also had some one to one training, and Charlotte has been really supportive in these too, providing useful methods to help with the issues which we have struggled with. Charlotte provides clear methods of training and has been really supportive, and not once was judgemental! We will definitely keep on with the training which we have covered, and look out for any courses in the future! Thank you Charlotte 🐾recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. We would definitely recommend using Charlotte if you have any training needs for your dogs. Charlotte is very knowledgeable, friendly and professional and gave us lots of techniques to help with our issues. Charlotte was always very clear with the methods of training and explaining why we were doing things a particular way, which we found really helpful. Charlotte was realistic with expectations and timescales and helped us set achievable goals to work towards what has been a successful outcome. Charlotte has also offered a lot of support both in and out of training sessions.recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. if you are looking for a dog trainer then look no further. Charlotte is kind, calm, supportive, understanding, knowledgeable, all while making it fun for both pooch and owner. Just brilliant!!! Chico will miss his weekly course, but we are LOVING the one on one training, and will keep that up.recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. We have just completed the confidence canine course with Charlotte. It’s the 2nd course we have done with her and I would highly recommend her as a trainer. She is able to break down the training into easy bite sized pieces, adapt it for dogs (or owners) that are finding bits tricky and willing to look at alternative rewards based upon your dogs drive. The confidence canine course built upon the skills we learnt in the puppy class, while also encourage further commands that will enhance your engagement with your dog. Thank you Charlotte for a another enjoyable course 🐾🐾recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Couldn’t recommend Charlotte enough. We’ve been on a 7 week course with Charlotte and we also had Charlotte came and did a house visit before the course as we were having problems with our golden retriever puppy. Charlotte is very patient, her training methods are effective and make sense! I like the fact that her training is all about positive reinforcement. She’s always happy to answer any questions and go over things again if you’re struggling. I would definitely recommend Charlotte to anyone wanting help with their dog and will be using Charlotte again in the future if needed.recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. Charlotte has been helping is with our dog Thelma. Thelly is reactive towards other dogs and has a fear of the vets. Charlotte has been amazing and helped us to see other ways of helping and understanding her behaviour. We still have a long way to go but I'd highly reccomend Charlotte xrecommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. We had an amazing time at the Canine Confidence Workshop today! Our anxious rescue dog Joni was so responsive to Charlotte’s gentle and kind manner, and we loved that Charlotte prioritised taking everything at Joni’s pace. We learned so many fantastic enrichment activities that we can wait to replicate at home and half way through the session Joni started taking treats - something she hasn’t felt confident enough to do yet on any walk/training session. This was a huge leap forward and so much thanks to Charlotte’s help, support, and guidance. Would thoroughly recommend any sessions Charlotte offers - she is so knowledgeable, reassuring, and articulate. We had so much fun and can’t wait to sign up for another workshop soon! 🐾recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. I took my 7 month old cockapoo to puppy class. It was a lovely small class, so plenty of 1-1 with charlotte. Millie gained in confidence from the class. She now knows her basic commands and responds well to them. The puppy walk was a good experience. I thoroughly recommend charlotte. She’s friendly, caring and very knowledgeable. Charlotte has offered 1-1 for Millie to help with her “over friendly” reaction to other dogs whilst she’s on lead. It’s good to know I can take up this offer if I need to. If you are hesitant about classes, I was, I would say give it a go. We certainly benefited from the experience. Thank you charlotte.
