October classes and clinics
Pizza Party nights- it’s all about the humans!
2 dates!
This is a special clinic that will allow you to address your challenges in trials or get help figuring out why things are happening at trials. Taking a break from the dogs skills, most of our challenges in competition center around-
Our planning challenges, what to do when it goes wrong, how to handle others around you- friend or foe, how to get past feelings of failure. How to mentally prepare and physically prepare. How to get your dog mentally prepared. How to split up your days or weekend to maximize your team on course.
