About Our Sports Group Class:
Have you ever wanted to get started in the world of dog sports, but feel too intimidated? Are you not sure your dog has the manners, natural ability, or confidence to excel in the ring? If you aren’t sure what sport to start with, your dog needs a refresher to clean up sloppy performances, or you are looking for a class that isn’t just sit and stay, this group class will be perfect for you! This class can be modified to suit all ages over three months.
We will cover the following topics:
Off-leash work and reliability for sports
Getting focus and engagement in the ring
How to keep your dog relaxed when crated
Building confidence in new situations
Intros to a variety of sports like disc dog, agility, stunt dog, rally, and more.
Creating solid foundational skills for sports
Working around other dogs and distractions
