What to Expect

This class focuses on teaching the dog to complete obstacle sequences independently and teaching the handler how to handle and reinforce dogs for more independent performance.

Prerequisites

Dog-handler teams must be able to safely perform most obstacles (other than weave poles and teeter) and to sequence 3-5 obstacles. Dog participants must be able to reliably come to the handler when called, focus on the handler in a distracting environment, and share the class field with other dogs and people safely.
