In addition, the groundwork will be laid for the A-frame, dog-walk and see-saw. Basic handling skills will be introduced. 8 classes 1 hour per week Intermediate Agility Skill Building: This level will continue to develop independent obstacle performance, ground work for handling techniques so your dog is familiar with your body language and verbal commands. We include training through jumping drills, obstacle sequences and will introduce you to competitive strategies.
