SUMMER
2009 CLASSES WITH
ADRENALINE
DOG SPORTS
START IN MAY!
For
information on agility and flyball classes offered by Adrenaline Dog Sports
at Dogz, you can check out their website
for class times or email them at info@adrenalinedogsports.com.
CLASSES...
All
our classes are open to any well-socialised dog - purebred or mixed breed,
big or small, young or old. You most certainly CAN teach an old dog, new
tricks!
Lessons run in 8-week sessions, and have a maximum of 6 dog/handler teams - this ensures lots of individual attention and practice time on the equipment. Classes run weeknights and Saturdays throughout the year, and we try to book times according to what works best for you.
PICK
YOUR SPORT!
Dogz is a multi-sport facility, so you can get training in the sport you'd always wanted to do, or maybe even find a new one you'd like to try!
|
||||||||||||||||
We offer lessons in Agility, Flyball, Rally-O, and Obedience and , and we're working on putting together programs for other sports like Lure Coursing, Disc Dog, Tracking and Scootering. Let us know what you'd like to try - the more interest we get in a sport, the sooner we can get started!

|
 |
Agility is a sport where dogs manoeuvre through a timed obstacle course consisting of jumps, ramps, weave poles and tunnels with the guidance of their handler (so they do them in the right order!) |
|
|
|
|
Similar to equestrian show jumping, it reflects a combination of desire, control, athletics and team spirit. It not only provides a lot of fun and exercise, but it also strengthens the bond between the dog and the handler. Our Agility program offers classes from the Puppy level up to Masters, depending on where you and your dog fit best. If you have a dog with basic obedience skills like sit, down, stay and come, you're ready to try Agility! For more information, contact Adrenaline Dog Sports

|
|
| Rally-Obedience (Rally-O) is a relatively new sport to Canada, but it is becoming a fast favourite for obedience enthusiasts! |
 |
|
This sport incorporates a series of over 40 obedience movements which are performed on or off leash - depending on your level - in a "course" format where you follow signs that lead you from one movement to another. What's more, every course is different! This obedience program emphasises fun and excitement, as you're encouraged to talk to your dog in the ring, and even use toys and treats as rewards when they've done a good job! We offer lessons at the Novice through Excellent levels, as well as training towards the new Versatility Certificate! If your dog has basic obedience skills and you're looking for a different twist on traditional obedience, give Rally-O a try! For more information, contact Sue, |

OUR
TRAINING METHODS...
We use the operant conditioning method of training - including use of the clicker - for all sports, and at all class levels. Using positive reinforcement (e.g. praise, food and toys) encourages your dog, helps them focus, and lets them know when they have done a good job. We don't use force - we'll teach you how to motivate your dog to work with you!
Our instructors have a wealth of knowledge and experience, both in teaching and competition, and they're ready to help you discover your dog's hidden talents, whether you're just looking for some fun or have that competitive spirit!
