Your improved understanding is going to have huge benefits for your dog’s performance. Each exercise forms part of the essential foundation on which you will be able to build your dog’s progressive conditioning program.<\/p>\n
You will learn how a Sit is never “Just-a-Sit”. Every movement has an awesome purpose for your dog and, correctly executed, makes it even more powerful!<\/p>\n
Included are video examples of exercises showing correctness, points to watch for and even mistakes in execution, along with reference PDFs for you to print out.<\/p>\n
Please don’t simply assume your dog can do all these exercises correctly<\/em><\/strong> without trying them first. Thereafter, please watch your dog with an analytical eye; this is best done if you video your sessions!<\/span> This way, you can see what you are doing too, which is very important!<\/p>\n The exercises are muscle-intensive and require a lot of effort from your dog when done correctly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Most important, though: enjoy yourself, have fun and enjoy your dog! This is what will make it all worthwhile!<\/p>\n Please let me know if you have any questions or “ah-ha” moments! I would love to hear from you!<\/p>\n Really!!<\/p>\n This is a private community where all posts and discussions are safe within the group.<\/p>\n \n We believe when each person focuses their energy on giving to others in the community, that individual will get back more than they can imagine! (and the community will be made better in the process).We are more interested in going farther together than going faster alone.Generosity is the fertilizer for everything we grow. Everyone is here to help and be helped.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n When we approach our craft and relationships in this community with curiosity, we create space for discovery, insight, and breakthroughs.Curiosity creates a road to discovery. Conversely, criticism pulls you down into a competitive mindset.It takes intentional effort to allow curiosity to bring you into the warm embrace of community. <\/span><\/p>\n Remember<\/strong>: curiosity over criticism and connection over competition. There is no score when it comes to canine gym and conditioning. There is only progress.Try these values on and give a twirl. How do you look? How do they feel? I have to say I think you look fabulous!<\/span><\/p>\n Feel free to post pictures of yourself or your dogs, ask questions and engage.<\/p>\n We have posts exclusively for help with your exercises as well as general discussions about sport and strength training.<\/p>\n We let you know about upcoming Live Group Calls within this group.<\/p>\n Our community is super friendly and helpful.
