Tricks for Beginners
In this two hour workshop we will teach some of our favourite tricks. There is usually more than one way to teach a trick, so our instructors will help you work through the steps and develop a series of individualised steps that are best for you and your dog.
You and your dog will begin learning how to:
Go around an object
Roll over
Leg weave
Circle the handler
Step up
Back up
Nose Target
Step Up
Touch
Bow
