FAST & FOCUSED: CONTROL UNLEASHED FOR AGILITY
When it comes to agility, the most successful agility dogs are the ones who can retain the best thinking brains. Whether it’s in the ring or outside of the ring, the agility environment can be a lot. That can cause a bunch of feelings! And those feelings can lead to all kinds of behaviors that aren’t helpful for your agility performance. Train your dog to be able to think in the face of what once distracted them and have the clarity you need to move successfully forward on your agility journey.
