Foundations for Agility
Service Description
Prerequisites: None This focuses on building the fundamental skills necessary for success in agility training. Dogs learn body awareness, confidence, focus, impulse control, and basic obstacle behaviors in a fun and supportive environment. Handlers develop effective communication, timing, and handling techniques while teaching their dogs to work enthusiastically as a team. Exercises may include flatwork, targeting, recalls, balance and coordination activities, tunnel introductions, low jumps, and foundation contact skills. This class is geared towards people/dogs with no prior agility experience and is suitable for dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages that can work comfortably around other dogs and people. Typical goals of a foundation agility class: • Improve focus and engagement with the handler • Build confidence and motivation • Develop body control and coordination • Introduce agility equipment safely • Teach basic directional and handling cues • Create a strong foundation for future agility training Note: This class will not include any contacts (dog walk, A-frame, teeter). This class is meant to work on foundation skills only. Goals of the class will be increased body awareness, handler focus, obstable focus, start line skills, and ground skills.
