Sabine Born with 307Happy Dog has invited me to Cody to offer a workshop. So, if you happen to be in the neighborhood on September 11th, or you are interested in travelling to wonderful Cody, please contact Sabine Born and join us for this super fun workshop.
9:30 am – 12:00 pm: Creative Movements (Dancing with your dog)
This workshop is a great foundation to practice moves that go beyond your basic commands, such as sit, down, stay.
I will give you new ideas on how to engage and work with your dogs in a more creative and fun way. You will start working on transitional moves, such as spins, circle around, through legs and much more, along with learning about sequencing, chaining behaviors together and how to choose the right music for you and your dog.
Creative Movements helps build confidence, team work, handler focus, and are great foundation-moves for other dog sports activities, such as Agility.

1:00pm – 3:30pm: Intro to Rally Obedience.
Rally Obedience, or Rally-O, is a fun dog sport based on obedience. This means, there are a lot of the same elements from obedience, such as your standard heeling, sit, down, and stay. Unlike regular obedience, instead of waiting for the judge's orders, the competitors proceed around a course of designated stations with the dog in heel position. The course consists of 10 to 20 signs that instruct the team what to do. Unlike traditional obedience, handlers are allowed to encourage their dogs during the course.
This Intro to Rally workshop will focus on the Novice signs and the importance of encouragement and teamwork, with a focus on precision in positioning. This workshop will help reinforce and improve your current basic skills ( sit, down, stay, heel , come to front, finish), while also teach dog and handler how to increase the duration of focus.
