Ready to put some spring in your step (and your dog's)? This multi-level Rally / Working class welcomes teams at every stage — and from both CARO and CKC — from absolute beginners finding their footing to seasoned handlers polishing their pivots.
We'll start with the building blocks: focused heelwork, clean pivots, and the footwork that makes it all look effortless. As you grow, we'll layer in more complex signs, tighter transitions, and the finesse that turns a good run into a great one.
Whether this is your first time on course, looking to improve your dog's attention on walks, or chasing that next title, you'll leave each session with new skills, better teamwork, and plenty of reasons to say Heel Yeah!
For students who are already students at love 2 play. If you can't find an open spot that works for you, email me....there are spots available!
