If you have completed classes elsewhere and trained important skills like a solid off leash recall in distracting environments, waiting quietly in a crate, sending to a bed, platform or mark bucket, then you may be ready to jump into a foundation agility class. If you have already trained your dog in agility at a different location, then sign up for our Placement Test so you can come and show off your skills. We’ll determine the level of class that will best suit your needs.
Would you like to test into an Companion Dog intermediate or advanced class without the listed prerequisites? Sign up for a Placement Test to determine the appropriate class level for which you and your dog are ready. For a list of skills required at each level, go to https://marinhumane.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/ADMIN-Class-Self-and-Pre-Screen-Test_2024Feb.pdf
If you have done Nose Work with your dog at another facility and wish to start at Marin Humane at any level beyond Nose Work Introduction, please register for a placement test to best assess which class is appropriate for you and your dog. All placement tests are conducted at Marin Humane in Novato.
