Agility: Focus: Contacts, A-frame and Dog Walk (5 weeks) $135.00
Build contacts your dog understands, and you feel confident handling. With individual coaching and concentrated time on the A-frame and dog walk, we can fine-tune the details, sort out what isn’t yet working, and strengthen what is. Whether your goal is a running or stopped contact, we’ll meet your dog where they are and move together toward a performance that is confident, consistent, and rewarding for both of you.
Agility: Startline Stays is ideal for those beginning their agility foundation training or for experienced teams needing to strengthen a dog's startline stay. This class goes back to the basics of building a reliable startline stay, for improved performance and to decrease chances of a fault on the course. Prerequisites include completing a basic foundation skills class, such as Canine Essentials.
Prerequisite: Completion of Agility: Foundation 1. Participants must have access to a teeter at least three times a week and provide a 12-foot board for home practice. This class will concentrate on developing confidence and consistency on the teeter.
Tunnels are important! It takes training for your dog to learn to read your handling at speed...and tunnels are a speed obstacle. We will cover the basics: crosses on tunnels, handling straight vs curved tunnels well, backsides and off-sides of tunnels, and fast, enthusiastic sends to tunnels. Prerequisites: you must have or borrow a tunnel to do your homework.
Agility: Focus Weaves is designed for dogs that have completed a basic skills class, such as Canine Essentials, and are ready to focus on developing their weaves for agility competition. Prerequisites include being comfortable in a crate and having a stay with the handler 6 feet away for at least 15 seconds. Handlers must have access to weaves at home, which can be 2x2s, channels, or weave-a-matics, with a preference for two sets of six poles.
