Super Stopped Contacts
An awesome, confidently performed, stopped contact is still highly competitive in the ring. A clearly understood and fluently trained 2on2off is free of self-releasing, creeping, and leaping. This class isĀ preceded by Foundations for Super Stopped Contacts.Ā
Starting Scenarios
Having a start line that you can trust and that doesnā€™t give you and your dog anxiety IS possible! Starting Scenarios teaches your dog (and you!) about being still, clear criteria, a set up behavior and how to apply it to start lines, acknowledging and addressing issues with arousal, addressing reinforcement systems, and maintaining criteria in the ring.Ā Give yourself the skills you need to help your dog!
Super Skills
Super Skills is setting the stage for creating our final, complex agility behaviors, which are actually composed of many different tiny, but critical skills. Brilliant agility dogs need to know how to use their bodies, how to drive to food or toy reinforcement (as well as return to you after the fact!), and have a solid understanding of marker and release cues. You the trainer, need the tools in your toolbox to make those things happen!
Fluency and the 3 D's
Distance, Duration, and Distraction; When we think about building each of these elements into the behaviors we train, it allows us to focus on increasing the complexity of the behavior and the variables around it one at a time. Learn to create distance (independence) and duration (commitment), while helping your dog handle any distraction (handler, environment, etc.) that they may face!
