Running Contacts That Make You Smile DVD covers the whole training process from getting the full out running, to flat plank work, raising the plank, adding challenges, turns, advanced exits, A-frame and running DW in trials, with a trouble shooting section within each chapter. The DVD features 30 different dogs of 16 different breeds on their journey to running contacts and addresses all the possible problems we encountered in Running Contacts classes.

Silvia,
There are 2 course maps in RC DVD (2 sequences for RC), but I didn’t see any PDF download. Where can I find these maps to download and print?
You mentioned that you started preferring target for collection turns (in the class instructions) – is there a reason for it? When I start a young beginner dog, shall I start with target for turns or poles?
You also mentioned that you didn’t train La for collections; is it important for smaller dogs, such as papillons? My papillon is oversized (13’’) and has longer stride for a small dog. Shall I train collections with him (at least, for 180 tunnel turns)?
There is no PDF for RC no, but you can take screen shot of that section and print it… And yes, ff target seems to be easier to fade + always gives correct style while a pole sometimes doesn’t (you can find examples of both in a class), so it might be a short cut to start that way, despite it doesn’t hurt to mix both either. Teaching turns would be very useful for turns into a tunnel yes (we don’t see that much because it doesn’t meet FCI minimum distance requirements), also for a small dog, so probably best to start with that too yes.
Is it better to train the whole time on one dogwalk and only switch to others when they master RC, or can you train it on two different dogwalks at the same time?
I started RC on a plank and now am starting on my own low dogwalk, but I don’t have a large garden or field of my own so for every trainingsession I have to drag the dogwalk to a field nearby 😉 it works but is not that efficient haha. About once a week I train at a dogschool and there I have excess to a competition dogwalk. So should I train RC also there or do you recommand to stick with my own dogwalk at home (or only train it at the dogschool)?
It’s certainly no problem to use different DWs already at this stage!
okay thanks!
