  • How to define and understand pressure in dog training and dog sports 
  • How to recognize different types of pressure
  • How pressure affects your dog and your dog’s performance
  • How to recognize the fallout from too much pressure

  • How to prevent issues
  • How to fix issues

Working participants can post videos of their training for feedback from all 3 instructors!
