Startlines that Stick the Webinar

I 100% believe anyone who says to me, “they know how to stay”, but what if we’re looking at the start line from the wrong perspective? Agility startlines go beyond the dog’s ability to stay put or not; it is a complex chain of behaviors that each need to be trained to fluency, built together, and layered with additional trial-like distractions in order to be sustainable long term. In this webinar, Megan will break down the elements of the startline, sustainable reinforcement strategies for those elements, adding in distractions, maintaining the behavior longterm, and some habits that might be doing more harm than good for your startline.The strategies presented in the webinar are suitable for dogs that have no prior startline training or issues and also for dogs that need to strengthen or retrain their startline behavior.Start this program by purchasing the webinar, and if you need access to the full program, upgrade anytime from within the course.

Weave Pole Training

As you progress through the phases, your dog will learn about the different entries, distance skills, and ignoring distractions. Then we will add poles and continue layering in different handler positions, motion, and reinforcers. Once your dog is weaving 4 poles, we will proof through common handling skills around weaves, and get you on the path to 12 poles!Additional modules on using other weave pole methods and problem solving are also included. This is a self-study program. Enrollment includes 12 months of access to all materials.

Train with Excellence: Teeter

This class starts with a trick and ends with a teeter! Teeter training can begin pretty early in a dog’s agility career because it begins with a simple trick: backing up! From this rear-end awareness exercise, we will introduce the 4-on behavior onto a wobble board or tippy board, name, and proof the behavior, and then start the process of transferring that behavior to a low teeter. Each team will be on their path to a full-height teeter, complete with sequencing and handling skills. The goal of this method is to produce a dog that runs across the board to the end, weight shifts back, rides the board to the ground, and waits in position for the handler's verbal cue to move off of the board. This is a self-study program. Enrollment includes 12 months of access to all materials.

Handling Skills: 

Handler Skills Bundle

This video lesson program consists of three presentations meant to build your toolbox as an agility handler. Agility Course Analysis breaks down the 5 phases of building a handling strategy that is suitable for your team. Reality lines teaches you how to best predict your dog's path on course. Timing of cues breaks down the skills required for good timing and how to use your predictions to execute your chosen handling strategy with the optimal timing for your dog. Included with these video lessons are PDFs of training plans that help you apply the concepts that you'll be learning.

Handler Mechanics Micro-skills

Do you constantly get the same feedback from your instructor over and over again? Does learning new handling techniques feel like a game of twister while running full speed? Breaking new skills down into smaller pieces is NOT just for teaching our dogs new skills: it's for YOU too! This training isolates the agility handler’s physical cues, training them without the dog.  By isolating common movements, we will develop fluency in your communication with the dog. The handler who takes this course will be better prepared to teach their dog the skills necessary to confidently follow their handling.
