THE Eden Valley Dog Training Club has closed after almost 50 years of helping owners train their dogs.
The club held open obedience shows every year as well as weekly obedience training classes in Appleby and Penrith for many years.
It also raised money for various local charities, and on its closure £1,500 was given to Hospice at Home, £1,000 to Search and Rescue Dogs Association (SARDA), and the balance of over £250 to Eden Animal Rescue.
