Basic Handling
Advanced and Competition Agility
Basic Handling
Our Basic Handling class helps students build awareness of the "dog's line". Understanding the dog's line helps handlers make better handling choices when they walk and run courses.
Handlers also work on their body mechanics to better "cue" their dogs for improved performance.
