There is a lot on the line at the Start of your run! Your dog is excited, you are focused on where you want to get to and remembering the course.
Having a dog that can reliably STAY where you set them up can make the difference between a clean run and a frantic attempt. Your dog's job is to wait for your release command: your job is to give clear direction to your dog.
We will also practice starts at different angles, including a reverse start. You want your dog to be able to take an obstacle straight on, or at an angle - depending on the line of the course.
And, what are your options if your dog really cannot relax at the start? You will need another plan.
Nothing is more important to me than having a strong start...there is a lot to think about on course. Having a good plan at the start can do a lot to lead you to a clean run!
