'The Dog Trainer's Resource 2' book - an article written by Sue Sternberg Nov/Dec/ 2006 'Agility to

E-mail

At the start of every class, and multiple times during class and at each subsequent class, I advise handlers on what to do if and when a dog gets loose and out of control. I tell them, if I yell 'Loose dog!' those handlers with healthy backs and small dogs will pick up their dogs and turn their backs towards the loose dog. Those handlers with weak backs or larger dogs are to place their dog's head between their legs, so that the dog's butt is to the loose dog, and his head is sticking out behind the handler. These handlers are then instructed to feed their dog continuously until the loose dog is caught.


I continuously remind students of this and practice fake drills every once in a while. I explain quite clearly to each class the risks and dangers agility training can produce, and the  importance of being proactive and prepared.


I remind students relentlessly that there are two types of dogs: predators and prey. This set-up keeps the other class dogs safe, and also ensures that the loose dog doesn't get rewarded for his behaviour by playing or fighting with any other dogs."

Dog Safety

E-mail

Members should be reminded that not every dog is friendly and that all dogs should be kept at a safe distance from each other whenever possible.

We know that our action sport creates excitement, and this can cause our dogs to become more volatile.

It is important that all dogs (even friendly dogs), must be on lead unless running the course.

 

So please be aware of your dog's actions

 

Temporary Grounds

E-mail
  •  
  • Cars may be parked on the grassed area close to the fence, after rain please check before enterint the grounds.  Members to be aware of the ditch on the outside of the fencing, and are advised to park on the flat area a little away from the fence.
  • The toilet area is away from the training area (green building with lights on), it can be seen from our grounds.
  • If for any reason, Gate 4 is locked before you leave, the main gate is always open (this gat is at the soutern end of the Showground area).
  • The containers provided for our temporary grounds, are a little more difficult when removing and returning equipment, we appreciate your understanding.
