James Amor
During James' agility career he has trained and handled a wide variety of breeds in all heights and most grades. James is a self-confessed gundog addict, having started his agility career with a working cocker spaniel (which reached Grade 6 before sadly retiring very early). James currently handles at Grade 7 and KC Championship level. James has a diverse background as a trainer, initially as a target shooting instructor, then as a motorsport medical instructor, before beginning his agility instructor career with Dig-It Dogs in Cheshire. James has competed in the Olympia Agility Finals, qualified for KC Championship finals, and multiple national finals. James and Zeta are the current UK Agility Performance Challenge Champions. "I believe the three most important components of agility are motivation, motivation, and motivation. Every dog has the potential to improve, and I believe the key to unlocking this potential is for the dog to think that a fun game just got better. I love to watch the dog gain confidence, the handler gain confidence, and then the partnership progress - I get a real buzz from being part of this process." |
