During this four-week session, students and their dogs will be introduced to and practice indispensable concepts and games which build confidence and encourage focus & drive needed for successful participation in any dog sport.  All training will highlight a balanced type of engagement!

Students will build value for their dogs to come quickly and stay with them, as well as leave their side and quickly to perform a task!  Additionally, students will be taught how to properly use the technique of “shaping” to teach their dog’s body awareness exercises as well as other skills pertinent to agility, obedience or rally competition.

To be successful in any dog sport it is crucial to build and a balance of drive and impulse control. During this 4 week session, students will work on skills at both ends of this spectrum. A variety of activities and skills will be introduced which raise the dog’s level of activity and state of arousal along with skills and activities that produce a calmer more thoughtful state. As drive is built, students and dogs will be challenged to maintain control and focus even when their dogs are in a heightened state of arousal.

If your goals include training & showing your dog in agility, obedience or rally, don’t miss this awesome class!
