[AU-018] Learn Your Dog CAMP: Course Analysis For Maximum Performance! (2020 Edition)

Join us for the 2020 edition of CAMP! Raise your game while developing your handling and teamwork, with our traditional challenges PLUS special skill sets and games for at-home training during these crazy times! The 8th annual CAMP will streamline your handling skills to keep up with the evolving challenges of the sport in a fun and challenging new format.

2020 Edition Of Camp Will Feature:

  • 10 week CAMP format, with assignment packages posted every 2 weeks (total of 5 assignment packages). Extra time to allow for extra fun!
  • 3 sets of drills in each assignment package:
    • Full Course Work For 2 Different Levels: Master the challenges you’ll find on a full-sized course – at 2 different levels! Each assignment will have 3 full courses to tackle for BOTH a Novice level (jumps and tunnels only) and a Masters level (jumps, tunnels, contacts, weaves). 6 courses to play with!
    • Sequences For Success: Shorter sequences for smaller spaces! The themes will be the same as the full courses but these sequences will fit into smaller areas, and will also feature different sets for the Novice teams and the Masters teams.
    • Skills Sets: Training the dog is just as critical as handling the dog! Each assignment will also include skills sets and training games to help hone the focus areas as well as teach them to the less experienced dogs.
    • Custom Skills Sets: Each working dog and handler team will receive a Custom Skill Set in each package, based on the needs of each individual team!

All CAMPers will have access to ALL of the courses, sequences and skills sets! This means you will get triple the info to help you fill any foundation holes, build your skills and plan for the future!
