Course Details
Training for dog sports involves many moving parts, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. How should you structure individual sessions? Where do you begin? How do you track progress—and what do you do when things don’t go as planned? In this webinar, we’ll explore how to create a practical training plan that supports both your short-term and long-term goals. You’ll learn how to structure your sessions, monitor your progress, and adjust your approach when challenges arise—whether in training or in life. With a solid, flexible plan, you’ll be better equipped to stay on track and keep moving forward. Without one, it’s easy to lose momentum and get stuck. Let’s build a plan that sets you—and your dog—up for success.

About the Presenter:
I have been training and competing for several decades in a variety of sports including Hunt Tests, Field Trials, Nosework, Agility and Rally. My first love has always been competition obedience. I have been fortunate to win the AKC National Obedience Championship four times with three different dogs. All my dogs have earned placements at Nationals. My dog Tyler won the World Cup and was First-Runner Up. All my current dogs have earned OTCH’s, multiple High-In-Trial and High-Combined awards, wins and placements at Regionals, as well as numerous perfect 200 scores.
I find training endlessly fascinating. Figuring out how to be a better communicator with each of my dogs is a never-ending challenge that I whole heartedly embrace. I love solving training puzzles. It’s what has kept me in the sport for so many years. I especially love the incredible relationship developed with my dogs through training and competition.
Although not currently practicing, I am a Physical Therapist and a Canine Rehabilitation Therapist. These days I’m an instructor at FDSA and own a Boarding Kennel. I’m passionate about teaching and sharing what I have learned over the years. Watching students grow and succeed is incredibly rewarding.
In my spare time I love hiking and playing with the dogs, running, practicing yoga, meditating and spending time with friends. I enjoy writing blogs and working with my friend Laurie on our Canine Connection Podcast.
