Getting a new puppy is always exciting!!! Getting a performance puppy can be overwhelming!!! So many items on your training list and you want to get it right to build your puppy's confidence, body awareness, drive and motivation, listening skills and impulse control! Oh my!!! Come join others sporting enthusiasts to learn foundation games you can play with your puppy to help address many of these training areas!! Appropriate for puppy up to 9 months.

This class is for young dogs just beginning to sequence and also for anyone who wants to revisit the basics. We’ll work on obstacle commitment, parallel running lines, and foundations for following the handling, extension and collection. Dogs should be familiar with jumps and tunnels. The jump bars will be appropriately set for the dog's size / age, and all exercises will be done according to the level of each team. Dogs should be minimum of 6 months.

This class will focus on sequences commonly seen in masters/excellent courses. We will break down the course as needed focusing on the foundation skills that need to be in place to successfully navigate upper-level courses.
