Come Rain or Shine - We're indoors!


Borderhauss Kennels teaches positive reinforcement training. We use lots of treats, toys, praise, and fun but, still have consistently high expectations. Since these are small classes you will have one-on-one guidance to give you a new approach to common behavior problems while learning dog sports. Typical group classes are too large; there are many small details that help your dog learn to be more efficient and consistent.  If you are unsure which class is right for you, please feel free to call, email, or come out for an evaluation.  These classes are designed to help you and your dog with whatever you need. We are flexible and tend to cater the classes toward your dog. We have a large venue to offer multiple dog activities and lessons. Our agility classes are indoors in a 4000 sq. ft. dirt arena.

As we get our facility up and running, we will begin with private lessons and only a few classes at this time.  Please plan on arriving early to potty your pup before entering the training building.  This is a dirt floor but it's a no pee zone and we look forward to many, many years of pee free training.  Thanks for your help.

Class Descriptions

July

Agility First Step – for pups/dogs 6 months or older
This is a class designed to help you start agility.  We will work on introducing all the obstacles, basic obedience to use during agility, and proper motivation and rewards.  We help you learn to teach your pup how to be safe on all obstacles and yet, love it!!  Any dog can do agility, but how many look like they love it and want to keep running!  If you have never done agility before, then this is the class for you.  

Agility Second Step – for pups/dogs 6 months or older
This is a class designed to help you continue your foundation agility.  We will work on combining all the obstacles and basic obedience you learned in “first step” with proper motivation and rewards.  We help you learn to teach your pup to be off leash in small sequence with distractions.  We will also learn to finish the weave poles and contact 2o 2o.  We will also work on toy motivation in exchange for treats.  If your dog has been on the equipment and has a good basic training relationship with you, then this is the class for you. 

Agility Third Step – for dogs that can perform all obstacles without assistance safely
This is a class designed to build on your foundation skills and apply them to sequences of obstacles.  We will use the crosses you have already learned and practice them in ‘course settings’.   We will continue to finish the weave poles and contacts, 2o 2o.  We will continue to work on toy motivation in exchange for treats and longer times off leash.  We will also focus on ‘manners’ outside the ring.  “what to do with your motivated dog while watching others run.”
