About this event

Instructor
Cindy Carter

Class Description

90 minute workshop focused on getting from the car to the start line with minimal chaos. You’ll learn strategies to help your dog stay focused on you around the pre-run clown show. We’ll discuss the best options for warm up (exercise jump or stretches at the car), food vs. toy before going in the ring, start line routine.

This is a good fit for new to trialing pups or seasoned dogs who struggle getting in the ring with a brain. Pre-requisite: Dogs must be 6 months or older. Limit 6, cost $20, members only.
