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.

Prerequisite: This class is in a group setting; participating dogs should be able to work around other dogs.

EDGE ESSENTIALS: OVERCOMING FOMO
Does your dog struggle when they feel left out? Those “big feelings” can show up as frustration, barking, spinning, vocalizing, or difficulty settling when another dog is training or playing. It may surface when you’re working a different dog, standing ringside, or anytime your dog can’t immediately access what they want.

This class will focus on teaching clear, constructive alternatives to frustration behaviors. Through thoughtful, reward-based training plans, dogs learn what to do instead of reacting—building emotional regulation, patience, and lasting behavior change.

Prerequisite: The dogs will work on stations and in crates. This class is in a group setting; participating dogs should be able to work around other dogs.

Paypal fees will be deducted from all refunds. There will be NO refunds after week one.

Prerequisite: This class is in a group setting; participating dogs should be able to work around other dogs. Dogs will be crated.

Paypal fees will be deducted from all refunds. There will be NO refunds after week one.
