Teaching tricks allows us to improve communication and bonding with our dogs. The objective in Trick Dog Test competitions is for the dog and handler to perform a selection of tricks, presented with obvious cooperation between a dog who is willing and working well and a supportive handler.

This class incorporates many of the skills required to successfully perform tricks at Starter and Novice level.

As many teams initially struggle with maintaining focus and motivation inside the competition ring – this class will also focus on building confidence in the ring, coping with distractions and utilising remote rewards.
