We are concerned about the spread of the coronavirus and have come to the difficult decision to close for 2 weeks.

Please be advised that at the end of business on Friday March 20 Fit n Trim will be closed to all group classes, privates and ring rentals at both locations in Rowley. Due to the Coronavirus all activities will be suspended for 2 weeks and then we will evaluate the current government advisories. If you are currently in a class ,your class will be delayed for 2 weeks. We apologize for this inconvenience but with an abundance of caution we need to protect our students, instructors, friends and family. Please get back to us with any questions and also monitor the web site.

We realize that young dogs especially need training at that critical young age so we will be trying to accommodate them as soon as possible and by whatever means possible. We will also try to open up ring rentals, private lesson and small outside classes as soon as possible. At FNT we are committed to everybody’s safety and we will do are part to lessen the impact of this virus. We thank you for you patience and understanding in these hard times. Please stay in touch , we will all need to stick together.

Breed Handling is a drop-in class where you will work on ring craft, practicing every skill needed to present both you and your dog to your best advantage in the breed ring. In addition to training your dog, you will learn proper ring procedure, how to hold the lead, and how to run beside your dog so that your dog, not you, stands out.

We will work on gaiting, free stacking, hard stacking and presenting your dog to the judges with the proper stance, expression, ear, head and tail carriage appropriate for your breed. If you have a table breed, you will perfect your table presentation. We work with distractions, and everyone in the group receives individual attention.
