Introduction to SpeedWay games and basic handling foundations.
Service Description
Whether your goal is agility, CPE SpeedWay, canine freestyle (dog dancing), rally, trick dog, obedience, or simply building a more engaged and confident companion, Paws in Motion Introduction teaches the essential skills every sport dog needs. Using positive reinforcement, games, and low-impact equipment, dogs and handlers will develop communication, confidence, body awareness, impulse control, and teamwork.
