Course Details
When it comes to agility, the most successful agility dogs are the ones who can retain the best thinking brains.
Whether it’s in the ring or outside of the ring, the agility environment can be a lot. That can cause a bunch of feelings! And those feelings can lead to all kinds of behaviors that aren’t helpful for your agility performance.
So how do we help our dogs? Building clarity amongst all the chaos! And how are we going to do that? Through different exercises and concepts built off of games and patters from the Control Unleashed program.
We’re going to break this down into four over-arching themes throughout class:
- Working around other dogs and people
- Start lines and end of run routines
- Criteria inside the ring (knocked bars, broken criteria, etc.)
- Outside the ring skills
You can work on all four themes or pick between them!
We’ll start with basic exercises that apply to all or our concepts, then from there, homework will be split into the four different categories.
No matter which themes you decide to work on, you will walk away with a dog who’s able to think in the face of what once distracted them and have the clarity you need to move successfully forward on your agility journey.
