In thisd
In this class we have a mix of dogs some who may be in their Old Age (over 10 yrs old and still enjoy to come) and some who have just graduated from the Beginners class
We are more tolerant of the older dogs as some have health issues such as arthritis so we do not insist on perfection from them. They and their owners pick and choose what they participate in.
With the younger dogs we are more demanding but we still listen to the owners as some do not wish to participate in all that is taught.
We try to mix up the various elements within the time available. This means that you will not always be doing the same thing week in week out - this helps keep the dog from getting bored. Having said that though we do some form of heel work, stays and recall of some sort every week.
