Baby Gates Kellee & Micah love their crates. I don't want them in their crates all the time.

I put a babygate up so they can't run down the hall and get in their crates.

Crates are a training tool. They learn nothing if they are always in their crate..

Kellee's on a longline.

He likes to hold his longline in his mouth. He's learning to come when called.

When he doesn't come I go get the longline and bring him back to where I called him. Give him a treat. Good boy : )

The Loneline is clothes line if it gets tangled it's easy to untangle. Slides easily around the yard.

Most of all, how to have a blast with your dog while you train

A dog must earn a placement or qualifying score in three different sports in order to earn the AD.

LickiMats promote calm behavior while your dog is home alone, during situations he finds stressful (such as storms or a vet visit), while he's in a crate at a trial or training class,Where your doggy hate bathing? Spread peanut butter or cream cheese on the dog lick pad and stick on wall of the bathroom dog's attention will be focused on the wall and they will not struggle for bathing. Give your puppy a relaxing bath time.

I believe in Beneficial Exercises.

Use a lower height (half of your dog's hock height) for cavaletti work, which is excellent for strengthening your dog's hind limbs, forelimbs, and core muscles. It also helps improve body awareness (proprioception), lengthens gait, and teaches collected balance. Besides getting stronger, the dog learns to use all four of his legs in an efficient and coordinated manner, which helps with the dog's footwork in all facets of agility. You need a minimum of 6 cavalettis for training and you can use up to 12 (even numbers only).

*Another beneficial exercise is to have your dog do sit-to-stand movements to strengthen her quadriceps and hamstrings. You can either have her do these movements periodically on walks, or have her do repeated sets of stationary sit-to-stands. Make sure she’s sitting with both legs under her backside. If she needs help with this, place her weaker leg against your leg as she sits, or have her do the movement against a wall.

Older dogs really need it to keep a skip in their step : ) Front feet on a step count to 5 give treat. Repeat 3 times.

Charlie, First Place AKC. Rally Excellent. He won a scarf to keep him cool.

Best Odor Eliminate Safe to spay on pets. Agility trials where the dog is running in a barn on dirt.

On our way out the door we're taking about what we will do. We look at Micah she's waiting in her crate : ) Micah has full run of the house but she choies to lay in her crate.

NOSEWORK, Micah is finding the Birch scent in one of the eggs. Nosework, Easter Eggs

When she find the right egg she sits to let me know she found it. She gets lots of treats!
