Fast Forward Agility Thanksgiving Workshops

Registration opens October 1, 2024

Essential Verbals – Friday 11/29/2024 9:00-12:30

We all know that dogs follow body language much easier than they learn verbal cues, which results in many dogs not really understanding the verbal cues that we are depending on them following. Starting with one jump learn how to teach verbal cues, using a minimal or zero handling. Progressing to 2-4 obstacles and may progress to verbal discriminations.

Jumps and Tunnels Only and suitable for all levels of dogs and those handlers who ate too much on Thanksgiving!

Essential Handling – Friday 11/29/2024 1:30-5:00

Focus of this workshop will be executing handling techniques precisely and timely. When running a full course it’s possible that you might be a little imperfect but do you know what perfect should look like. 

Short sequences with jumps, tunnels and possibly weave poles (that can be skipped if necessary). Suitable for all levels of dogs.

Life after tunnels – Saturday 11/30/2024 9:00-12:30

The obstacle after the tunnel is the MOST commonly faulted obstacle on course. This workshop will focus on sort sequences with handling challenges and discriminations following tunnels.

Weaves and a contact may be used.

Extreme Challenges – Sunday 12/1/2024 9:00-12:30

Short sequences containing extreme challenges requiring superb skills.
