Instructor: Laurie Danaher
Sundays 4:30 pm - 5:30 pm
4 weeks (4/21, 4/28, 5/5 and 5/12)
Content: This class is the second in a three-part series, permission of the instructor required for those teams who have not successfully completed Pre-Novice Agility Skills 1.
The goal is to prepare green agility handling teams to compete at the novice level. Each class will revolve around learning to complete a selected novice level standard or jumpers agility course, adjusting runs individually to accommodate the dogs’ age and the teams’ abilities. Class content will include advice on entering trials, learning the best way to walk a course, and other beginner basics for handlers new to the sport or with an interest in learning more.
Criteria: Dogs must be 15 months of age. Dogs must have begun to learn all contact obstacles and weaves, but do not need to be proficient.
This is a skills building class meant to bridge the gap between introduction to the obstacles and being competition ready - this is not an introduction class.
Bring a variety of treats - lots of small soft treats and some light-colored treats that show up well on the mats (charley bears, cheese balls, etc).
Dogs must be able to rest (reasonably) quietly in the training room crates or alternatively in the kitchen or in your car. Given the limited number of club crates, please be prepared to bring your own crate.
One dog per handler unless class does not fill.
Junior handlers welcome.
Limit: 6
