The 6 week class is meant for teams planning to compete in dog sports. It helps build the foundation skills necessary to advance into agility, flyball, obedience, rally or other sports. The class covers effective toy play techniques and food reinforcement to build and keep engagement. The reinforcement strategies will encourage both working close to the handler and moving away from the handler. We will work on training techniques such as shaping, targeting and chaining, shadow handling/circle work, and working on both sides of the handler. We will work on advanced sit/down stays, on and off-leash heeling, and recall skills with distractions. The class also covers strategies for managing arousal, focus, and understanding how to redirect dogs away from distractions. Prerequisite is successful completion of one of our Manners classes or instructor approval.
This 6 week class will let you try out a different dog sport each week! Rally-Obedience, Agility, Scentwork, Flyball, Freestyle & Disc. Prerequisite: One of our Manners classes (Companion Dog Manners, Rowdy to Well-Mannered or Performance Manners) or get instructor permission. Contact us at [email protected].
