Dog Agility - Dog and Handling Skills For Beginners

Welcome to our Dog Agility - Dog and Handling Skills For Beginners.

This is the follow on from our Dog Agility For Newcomers Course. As the dogs have now been introduced to the agility equipment and are jumping a few jumps, we can start to teach you some handling skills and show you how to teach the dog the technique.

This will help you to put the obstacles together allowing you to run small courses and once you have taught your contacts and weaves you’ll be able to run a full agility course.

In competition a course consists of 14-20 obstacles

We will also show you how to teach stop or running contacts by back training the behaviour. You will also be shown how to teach channel/swivel weaves, to help your dog be weave independent.

The course explains each skill, shows you how to teach it and then we have included videos of teaching the skill to my clients which shows some trouble shooting we had with running contacts.

Also included at the end of the course is a short video of some exercises you can practice with just 2 jumps or 1 jump and a cone.

All training is taught in a positive reward-based way.
