AGILITY COURSE ANALYSIS WORKSHOP
Or, Why Didn’t I See That BEFORE We NQ’d?!?
This seminar is intended for AKC and USDAA agility competitors of all levels who want to improve the odds of handling their dogs through Standard and Jumpers/JWW agility courses successfully.
Have you ever gotten lost in the middle of an agility course? Are you befuddled by serpentines, threadles, and pinwheels? Have you ever NQ’d because you were surprised by an off-course that you didn’t recognize beforehand? Then this seminar is for you!
Mostly lecture and discussion, this seminar will teach you:
- how to successfully navigate your way through an agility course
- how to recognize and avoid potential off-course faults
- how to plan and make the best use of walk-thru’s
- how to identify options, challenges, and side switches simply by studying a course map
Discussions will include course design requirements, physical considerations, pattern identification and sequencing, and obstacle placement. You will have the opportunity to walk courses, analyze the best paths for you and your dog, and then actually run your dog through each course to reinforce what you’ve learned.
