The Seesaw may still need assistance and weave poles are still a work in progress. Dogs should be able to stay with the handler for short sequences off leash. This class will develop equipment fluency, handling and teamwork and continue to work on longer sequences.

Dogs should be fluent on all equipment, may still need work on weaves but the dog should be working in channel weaves and full height contacts. Dogs must be able to work short sequences-off-leash and have a reliable recall. This is a “pre-competition” level class, regardless of whether they plan on competing or not. This class will continue to build teamwork and enable handlers to develop basic handling and course strategy skills. Cost for members is $130 and will reflect in your cart/checkout automatically.

Thanks to the Dogs Rule 4-H Club for coordinating with ODTCW for a fun and successful AKC Fit Dog Spring Scurry event 🌞 The weather cooperated nicely, and the park provided an interesting and pleasant backdrop for this family friendly, fun event. Around a dozen teams got some fresh air and exercise, with well behaved canines enjoying the activity. Many new friends were made. Great job everyone!
