Starting Equipment

Now that our pup has a good foundation and understands our cues, lets start doing some equipment! We will start out with a hoop and add more hoops to teach our puppy to drive forward and to turn. We will start working pinwheels and various turns; We will teach the tunnel and then start using the tunnel to teach directionals. We will also start foundation for contacts using a mat, a bench and a board on the ground.

This class is jammed backed with lots of great lessons!!!

-Start Hoop work to teach commitment and drive to obstacles

-Add Hoops to teach puppy to drive forward straight and on curve

-Start Tunnel Training

-Teach turns- Here/ Switch Come/Flip

-Teach Pup To Drive Forward

-Foundation Contact Training starting with mat to running across a board and already work distance off of contacts

-As always, I work distance into each lesson so puppy is learning distance right away!

You will have access to this class a year after enrollment, giving you plenty of time to train, video and get feedback on your videos.

In this class I will be performing these exercises with my puppy Inspire! You will see the actual learning process of how I train my pup. I have never had a dog understand my cues and body language as a pup/young dog as Inspire does and I attribute this to the new groundwork exercises that I have done! He has amazing distance already. I am so excited about our agility journey and would love to share some of the great exercises I did with him as he grew from a pup to a dog that just started to compete with great success!!

This class is great for puppies as well as older dogs that need to learn these skills and more advanced teams that want a “tune-up”.

Please note that you must take the Prepared Puppy 1: Class before taking this class.
