- Fun Runs Agility fun matches! A "trial"
course is set up for handler and dog to run as preparation or
practice for actual trialing. We vary the venue to accommodate
USDAA, NADAC, and AKC offering practice for even some of the
overlooked "games" exclusive to a particular organization.
We encourage all participants to take the extra time to
reinforce their training and reward their dogs while in the ring.
We focus on keeping the "fun" in our matches
as well as sharing to newcomers what to expect at actual Trials
and some of their responsibilities once there.

- Paws On WorkShops
Our workshops are for participation of
handlers with their dogs. We vary our workshops throughout the
year focusing on different "skills" such as Handling
or Gamblers as well as various levels of the skills, such
as Pre-Novice through Competition. Our newest forum, The
GALA, has been highly applauded and is designed to be as
much fun as its name implies!

- Seminars While
the Workshops are designed for participants to work their dogs,
our Seminars are generally designed as an informative lecture,
not for participants to bring and work their dogs. Our
original, "Introduction to Agility: a Teamwork of
Man and Dog" was designed for people who have a passing
idea of what Agility is and think it may be something they may
want to try with their dog. Possibly they have only seen
it on tv but have little actual knowledge of what it entails.
We explain in depth what Agility is and isn't, the
contrasts with competition Obedience, the training philosophy,
etc. Several demos with dogs illustrate training steps,
maneuvers dogs need to learn, body language and choreography
as well as course "runs".
-
- The latest seminar in works is
"Why Would My Dog Want To Do That?" Not agility
specific, focus is on the alternative training concept
we have described in Play Training (using motivators as incentives
and rewards) and using correction only when necessary. Designed
to enlighten handlers how to become more effective, fair
trainers for their dogs and targets basic companionship training.
