Prerequisites and Equipment

Set Up - Ideally you have 1 to 2 platforms that are an appropriate size for your dog. I prefer that the platform is stable, but you can introduce some unstable platforms as the class progresses. There are many commercially available platforms, but you can also make your own. You can be creative. The smaller the dog, the smaller the platform should be. Your dog should be able to stand in a normal stacked position on the platform and the platform should be not be more than a couple inches wider than your dog. Examples of different set ups will be included in the class.
