For the experienced handler we offer 'mat time' classes to get those paws moving and get your dog or puppy well versed in the ring.

​

For Beginners - Learning about dog shows can be daunting for new handlers. Our Beginners class is designed to teach you about the ins and outs of the ring and prepare you for your first laps as a professional dog handler. Everyone was in 'those shoes' at some time but being prepared to enter the ring with the help and guidance of a professional instructor will make your debut more comfortable! Although it might seem easy enough, show handling requires learning; for both dog and handler. Learn what is expected of you in the ring, how to 'stack' (pose) your dog, present the teeth and much more!
