Ann Arbor Dog Training Club

DESCRIPTION:  This is a class focusing on skills that will help your dog compete in flyball.  Flyball is a relay team sport that has been compared to drag racing with your dog.  The countdown lights start the race between 2 teams of 4 dogs, which in turn, race over low hurdles to retrieve a ball from a spring-loaded box, and race back over the same hurdles to their handler. Once they are back the next dog goes.  The first team to have all their dogs successfully complete the course wins the race.

The class will familiarize entry-level and beginner dogs (and their handlers) with the fundamentals of flyball training.  Successful completion of the class will provide them with the foundation upon which they can build before progessing to participation in flyball competitions.

All levels are welcome
