Show-n-Go

Show-n-Go is a practice trial.  There are experienced trainers calling exercises, ring stewards, competitors and classes, but there are no ribbons or placements.  You can use treats, toys, praise and corrections (NOT abuse) in the ring.

The idea of a Show-n-Go is to create as much of a real trial atmosphere as possible so you and your dog can get used to being in a competition without the full stress (or entry fees) of an actual trial.  It's a great way to:

  • Rehearse the full set of exercises for a trial, especially if you or your dog are new to the ring or new to the level at which you're trialing
  • Find out what the dog will and won't do when you can't carry a treat or reward her after every exercise

​
     K-9 offers a very unique opportunity to proof your dog(s) in a trial atmosphere. Our goal is to provide an affordable and worthwhile training situation that will advance your personal training program. Three obedience rings and the agility field are running simultaneously. Noises and excitement abound amid the people and dogs for a full afternoon under cover in the pavilion. Crating space and parking are convenient and ample. Whether you are new to training, have a green dog that you need exposure for or are working on otch points, K-9 provides experienced club volunteers that will call your runs, coach you if requested, and encourage your handling skills. You make the ring as formal or informal as you wish.
