“TRAIN LIKE YOU TRIAL” OBEDIENCE RUN-THRUS
OBEDIENCE RUN-THRUS
Train Like You Trial” run-thrus provide an opportunity for you to find out if your dog is ready to compete by giving them a trial-like experience in a ring . For the experienced dog, it’s the perfect way to surprise them by using a “Fix-n-Go’ without having to leave the ring.
At Happy Dogs, we do not hurry you in and out of the ring while your dog practices making mistakes. We give you plenty of time to work through your most persistent trial problems – those persistent errors that seem to only happen in the ring.
Happy Dogs has two full-sized working rings so your dog will be able to practice while another dog is heeling, jumping, and retrieving in the next ring. There will be people sitting in chairs and dogs in crates around the perimeter of the rings and dog/handler teams warming up and waiting in line just like at a trial.
