Pre-Agility/Levels 2 & 3

This class is aimed to increase impulse control for the dogs , create a companion that you can take anywhere, and/or get you and your dog on the road to competing in any dog sport. As a base for this class, we use Sue Ailsby's Levels. We go level by level, test out and move on to the next level. Aside from using Sue's levels, we also concentrate on 'shaping' behavior. Shaping is done by taking small increments of a behavior to get to a goal end behavior. Training with positive methods using a marker to 'capture' or 'shape' behavior produces not only well mannered dog, but one that actually thinks! You can check out Sue's Levels at http://www.dragonflyllama.com/%20DOGS/%20Dog1/levels.html Pre-requisite to this class is testing out of Level 1 Cost of this class is $18 per class paid in blocks of 4 or 8. This class is modular vs. linear - meaning that there is no start and no end. If you miss a class, it is easily made up during any of the similar classes held throughout the week.
