MASTERING CONSISTENT/RELIABLE RUNNING CONTACTS
Contact Training Is your dog prone to fly-offs? inconsistent running contacts?
More and more handlers desire a running A-frame. Some worry about the unknown long-term physical effects of stopping dogs on the obstacle. Some feel that their dog’s structure or a previous injury makes stopping him unsafe. Others have dogs that clearly indicate they aren’t physically comfortable with the behavior being asked for, no matter how hard the handler works on weight shift and motivation. And still others have competitive aspirations and want to perform the obstacle as quickly as possible. But no matter why you want a running A-frame, there is finally a realistic approach to teaching an accurate and consistent running A-frame to all varieties of dogs.
In this class we will be teaching Rachel Sanders’ A-frame “box” method. It promotes the stride lengths required for a dog to reach the contact zone and that are comfortable for the dog. This method is suitable for new agility dogs and to retrain competing dogs where appropriate.
