6-DVD set by Mary Ellen Barry ©2010
The purpose of this program is to build specific skills that your dog needs before you begin his obstacle training. It is difficult to teach agility equipment to a dog if he is running around with a toy, sniffing around, mugging you looking for a treat or going to find someone to see if they have a better treat than you! It is hard to teach a dog to go over a jump or into a tunnel if he does not focus on the task at hand. Some of the things this 6-DVD set covers are, ignoring and working through distractions, using nonagility equipment to teach your dog to understand handling cues and perform forward and lateral sends, teaching your dog to play with you without toys, and teaching recalls even with distractions. 394 minutes.
