Let's learn how to use Paw Pods and Paw Stackers!
In this class you will learn how to target train your dog in relation to conditioning. Targeting is when you teach your dog to touch a particular object with part of their body (commonly their feet or nose).
We then go through how to use this training method to improve various aspects of fitness, such as proprioception, strength, balance and coordination.
Using this targeting knowledge and technique we will look at improving your dog’s dynamic & static balance, independent limb awareness, and coordination by incorporating this specialist balance equipment.
Who Is This Class For?
This class is ideal for dogs of varying activity levels. Owners looking for a fun enrichment activity for their dogs or for those with canines participating in sports who are looking to improve performance, for example, show dogs that would like to improve conformation stacking, or agility dogs in need of some more body awareness to help improve their tight turns.
Equipment is available to purchase from our shop so that you can train at home.
