Speed&Conditioning

It’s finally out! My 5th training DVD, on SPEED this time: Ready-Steady-GO! – or 33 Tips for More Speed! The DVD is 1h45min long and has 5 chapters, addressing Conditioning, Attitude, Games to play, dealing with Stress and making Agility training more about running.

Speed was always our favourite topic and having the fifth dog who is constantly setting best times of all jump heights and holding a record of setting best time on World Championships for 20 times (16 times with La, 4 times with Bu – and Lo once had 2nd best time: after La :) ) probably means we have something important to tell :)

I definitely recommend this DVD to all who feel their dog could still run even faster or deal with motivational or stress issues. You’ll also learn a lot on my approach to agility and philosophy behind the training that makes them just as fast as they are – and a lot on conditioning that keeps them that fast that LONG! This DVD will also give you a good look into our everyday life as well as our agility trainings. So no, it’s not just for dogs with speed issues! For me, it’s actually the most important pre-agility step and we follow the 33 Tips all the time. And oh, it’s mostly taken in beautiful Corsica mountains! :)

    I got your speed DVD for Christmas and it is truly excellent (even my non doggy mother enjoyed watching it!) I can’t believe the difference in the beagles motivation levels after only a couple of weeks of chasing play – I always said I wish they could run agility as fast as they chase rabbits and now it actually seems a possibility! Thanks

      Glad you liked it!!! I’m sure your Beagle will soon look (and sound!!! :) ) like chasing a rabbit on agility field! Hunting breeds can really do great in agility, they just require a little different approach as BCs.

    Spur doing his balance homework from the DVD! This stump has a bit of an angle to it, so it has taken a few sessions to get to this point! :D

      Cool! Definitely looks quite advanced yes, even if without an angle!

    Great job with the DVD, I love it! Lots of great ideas and reminders, I especially like that you focus on every dog as an individual and try to find what works best for that particular dog.

      Yeap, I think thinking outside the box and being able to adjust to each dog is a very important dog training skill!

    I love this DVD and your philosophy. I did channels to teach Sid weave poles and it paid off with speed. I wish I would have done contacts your way. Now I have a question under Agility in the video. If I don’t babysit the entry to contacts he jumps from the side (unsafe looking) or runs by . I could use a more independent entry so I can get ahead of him. He holds his 2o2o in practice but sometimes at trials his adrenalin is pumping so high he doesn’t. I am thinking a more independent entry will help as you have with La in the video. How do I train this? and am I correct in thinking this way? This happened last weekend at a trial where we had a beautiful run that didn’t end well because I was behind in the dogwalk, he didn’t hold his 2020 and circled toward me and the last 2 jumps were away from the DW..

      Yes, you definitely want him to be able to find a safe approach on his own. I help them at first by setting a wing and then a pole at the entry and expecting them to go around to take a DW. They soon learn it’s actually faster to enter it that way as it’s easier to stay on, so it’s pretty easy to fade a pole then – just use it for some weeks, sending him on DW with a verbal from various angles and without much help.

    Thank you, I don’t want to assume anything, so how about independent entries to the A frame and teeter? Do you train those? if so, the same way?

      Not really, I don’t train A-frame and see-saw much… I think they generalize it pretty well, despite I will sometimes help with the approach for those two as I have more time as on a DW :)

    Finally got to watch this. We enjoyed it very much. Might just get a middle-aged man moving eventually. My dog tends to forget his non-aggressive good manners sometimes when this hyped but I’m hoping this will go away with time. We have been working with the closed food container as he still has about zero interest in toys after years of trying.

    Thanks!
