Agility - Improving Handler & Dog Skills - Intermediate (SP) (Members Only)
with Sandra Platt
$120
This class is the next step after Foundations & Groundwork 101, 102, 103. It is a building block to help gain skills necessary for future intermediate and advanced classes and to help the team compete at novice level. We will include short sequencing of obstacles in both standard and jumper’s courses. A map and time to walk the course will be provided at the beginning of each class. During the class, the course may be split into two parts to help ensure success.
At the completion of this class, the instructor will help students choose the agility class that will best help them reach their objectives.
Note for students and dogs new to Merrimac Dog Training Club: An evaluation is required to see which class fits your dog for its success. In addition, vaccination records must be provided the first day of class.
Pre-requisites: Dogs must have a start line stay and the ability to follow the handler, off leash, through a simple course with jumps, contacts, and weave poles. The team may be weak on the teeter and the weave poles, but should be able to complete the “A” Frame and Dog Walk with little help. The instructors of the foundation classes will advise students if they are ready to enroll in this class.
