Dog Trails NI is a new venture bringing canicross classes and training to Northern Ireland. Join in on Saturday at Benone Beach for a free taster session where you will learn the basics, get to try out some kit and work as a team with your dog. This is a free event but booking is required. Places are limited so don't miss out. You don't need to be a runner to take part – interest in giving it a go, and a four-legged training buddy are all you need.
