Building Endurance in Heeling:
Heeling is a very complex behavior for dogs. It’s common that dogs can heel for a short time but struggle for an entire heeling pattern. Dogs often lose attitude, position, focal point and/or engagement. How do you teach them to hold it all together AND maintain attitude? How do you get them to heel with engagement and accuracy in preparation for the ring? This workshop will break down how to build your dog’s mental stamina in a fair, mindful and fun way. Heeling also requires physical strength and stamina. It is important to make sure your dog is physically able to handle heeling for longer periods. We will discuss warning signs for physical issues that could adversely impact your dog’s ability to heel for an extended period of time.
