    “I have always loved watching people and their dogs doing agility but thought I could never do it. Then I tried a class with E. She is patient, kind, knowledgeable. She gets to know each human and their dog individually and provides teaching specifically to what they need to have fun and grow as a team in agility. 

    In a year, I went from not being sure I could do agility at all to getting Bancroft’s ACT1 title! Grateful to have E as our trainer to help us to continue to grow on our agility journey!”

    Snickers Not-A-Doodle just finished her first weav Snickers Not-A-Doodle just finished her first weave poles class and is absolutely crushing it. What a smart girlie!

The Mini Mixed Level Agility classes on Tuesdays at @yourdogsfriendtraining are focusing on handling skills in Sept/Oct, but weaves will be back after that!
    Does your dog ignore you if they know you don’t ha Does your dog ignore you if they know you don’t have treats or a toy? 

One of the hardest things for dog sports teams preparing for trials is that for the majority of sports, all food and toys are left outside the ring. 

The trick to "no treats" work isn't that your dog works for no pay. We just teach them to trust us that they will be paid handsomely later. You will bring lots of treats (or toys) to class and we will build the routines that teach your dog when and how to expect their paycheck.

Prerequisites: Any dog sport class

Class length: One class, 1 hour.

Fee: $50
