Hi, I am Carol and will be working my 19 month old sheltie Strut. He is my 4th agility dog and the second dog I have trained with 2x2s. We have run into some lack of understanding on his part when adding the second set of poles so this course is perfect timing for us to get some help. We will be starting from the beginning. Looking forward to class.

Hi Carol,
I love the names you give your dogs!! You will find that some days are better than others. I am helping my students understand the neuroscience of learning. We are creating new neural pathways with this program. It is important then that we do not use training from the past that may confuse things. This program is designed to teach you how to teach your dog to look for and FIND the entry with little help from you. For most people this is brand new thinking. Therefore the need to allow time for new neural pathways. There is a saying: “Neurons that fire together, wire together.” If you are clear, concise and consistent even in the beginning you will start to see certain anticipatory behaviors telling us the dog understands. One of the first you may see is the dog “looking at the poles” to determine his entry. If you start seeing this will you let me know? Sorry for rambling 🙂
