Course Details
This is the entry level class for those who are interested in pursuing the ring sports. In this class we will focus on food and toy handler mechanics, foundation object guard and defense of handler skills, accessory introduction, the use of ‘contrast’ as a tool in our work, individual and team whistle recall exercises, and group brainstorming and discussion surrounding a dog’s early foundation education in ring sport. This solid set of foundation skills will create the stage for all of our future training.
In addition you will be introduced to our basic philosophy – a focus on mutual enjoyment, cooperation, and love of the work – for both members of the team.
