Handling 101 / 201
Monday 3:30pm and 4:45pm
The 101 and 201 skills classes focus on basic agility handling techniques to further the foundational education of dog and handler teams. These handling skills are gradually built upon as the agility team matures in their knowledge, competency, and confidence. Agility equipment covered in class may include: weave poles, teeter/seesaw, dog walk, a-frame, table, tunnels, jumps, and a variety of introductory handling skills. Teams will work on reinforcing skill sets individually and within short sequences, broadening their obstacle behaviors while honing their handling skills.
Prerequisite: Passed Foundations series of classes. Dogs should be familiar with contact obstacles and have developed the beginnings of contact/targeting behaviors. Teams should be practicing positive reinforcement techniques using toys/food/clickers. Teams should have a positive attitude and be prepared to practice some skills at home.
6-week session starting January 2026
