Intermediate Coursework
Tuesday 6:30pm
Using a team's solid grasp of skills and basic handling, this class will work short sequences to enhance proficiency and confidence on equipment. This class will expand the team's understanding of the dog's line, different turns and crosses, as well as motion as it relates to collection, extension, and lateral distance. Teams will also learn to develop and execute course strategies. Dogs and handlers at this level may be trialing, but trial experience is not required. Courses from the Open and Excellent levels may be used.
Prerequisite: Handling 101/201, Skills & Drills, Either/Or Drills, Pre-Novice/Novice classes, or similar background. Dogs should demonstrate an understanding and general competency of all agility obstacles, but don't need to be proficient. Human handlers should understand basic handling practices and theory. Teams should have a positive attitude and regularly practice skills at home.
