OB732 Handler Choice - August

During this 6 week course, the handler can decide on WHATEVER it is that they want to work on for the duration of the course…..

This will be your chance to partake in a ‘tailored’ made class for YOU!

The course is aimed at developing and focusing on exercises/behaviors or problem-solving. Handlers are asked to identify two core behaviours/skills/exercises to work on within the six week course, andwill receive feedback or content relating directly to your training.

Some common examples:

• - drive issues
• - ring preparation
• - dealing with high drive dogs
• - dealing with low drive dogs
• - progressing heeling
• - retrieve issues
• - toy play
• - send away/go out

A set of "core" lectures is provided on some common sport training issues (heeling, tugging, play etc.) and the balance of lectures/videos will be provided based on the needs of the gold students.

Teaching Approach

Handler's choice is tailored to the Gold Student's needs. You are able to select two core behaviours/skills/exercises to work on within the course, and receive feedback or content relating directly to your training. There are lectures included from previous HC classes, which may or may not relate to your own training. The majority of lectures are video format usually with voice-over describing how to handle the video content. Additional lectures/videos are provided/catered as needed specifically based on the Golds skill requirements. Feedback is giving on two areas identified at the start of the course.
