Course Details
This class starts with a trick and ends with a teeter! Teeter training can begin pretty early in a dog’s agility career because it begins with a simple trick: backing up! From this rear end awareness exercise, we will introduce the 4-on behavior onto a wobble board or tippy board, name and proof the behavior, and then start the process of transferring that behavior to a low teeter. Each team will be on their path to a full-height teeter, complete with sequencing and handling skills. This goal of this method is to produce a dog that runs across the board to the end, weight shifts back, rides the board to the ground and waits in posiiton for the handler's verbal release cue. The class is suitable for dogs with no prior teeter experience, and also suitable for dogs wanting to retrain their teeter performance.

Teaching Approach
This class will take a step by step approach. Each step will have written instructions with a corresponding video of each step. Videos tend to be short (less than one minute) demonstrating one small piece at a time, with several pieces outlined in one lecture. Lectures are released in one batch at the beginning of the week. Feedback will all be written.
