December 2, 2025Just for fun, we thought we would offer a class that combines both Obstacle skills and Shadow Skills into one course. The teams have been loving this class! And we are seeing great improvements in the dogs' focus on their handlers.
This class will focus on Novice Skills and introduce you and your dog to heeling with tricks.
We build a Shadow Skills course - then we add a few obstacles for the dogs to perform.....Ladder, hoops, jumps, cones, mats, etc. Heeling practice with more fun games to keep your dog's interest.
Basic training skills are incorporated - sit, down, stand, leave it, stay, come, working through distractions, etc. But the fun part is teaching the tricks - spins, circles, and flips of various kinds. Tunnels, Hoops, Jumps, Platforms, Steps, Cones, Mats, Moving obstacles, Retrieves....a wide variety of skills will also be introduced.
These skills all transfer into good use in daily life with your dog. Build your dog's confidence, impulse control, interest in paying attention to you. Leashes will be optional at certain times, so this is your chance to help build your off-leash skills too.
Dogs & puppies should have a basic understanding of leash walking, sit, down, stay, and come. Handlers should have a basic understanding of positive reinforcement training.
This class will be a fun way to improve your handling skills, be more creative in your training, and encourage your dog to want to stay close to you.
