JumpStart Handling builds your dog’s foundational jumping and sequencing skills using jumps and tunnels. You’ll learn essential handling maneuvers — front crosses, blinds, rears, backsides, and threadles — while developing timing and teamwork. This class connects the dots between obstacle training and full-course handling.
Prerequisites:
- Off-leash control in class
- Completion of Agility Foundations (or instructor approval)
Next Steps:
May be taken alongside Contact & Weave Skills, or progress to Coursework Fundamentals upon completion.
McCann Dogs Agility offers a comprehensive coaching program in a fun and supportive environment dedicated towards those interested in competing with their dogs.
At this time, our program is nearing capacity and preference each session is given to those currently in the program or those who have completed their basic training though the McCann Dogs Life Skill Programs.
If you are new to us and hoping to join our Agility classes, please contact our office team to book an assessment/private lesson with one of our agility coaches to see which level would be most appropriate. Please note that new dog and handler teams must have the same skill level and verbal control off leash around distractions as our life skills 3 students.
