Class 3: Skills

Enrolments for term 4 are now open

Term 4 begins on Thursday the 8th October

A dog must have passed the assessment at the end of basics to be eligible to enrol in the skills class. Even if your dog has been trained elsewhere and has some experience in agility, it is a policy of WAG for any new member to begin in the foundation or basics class, at the discretion of the committee.

Most dogs spend a few terms in the skills class. This is to ensure that the dogs and handlers have all the necessary capabilities and experience to progress to the development class. The skills class is a huge learning curve; in this class dogs and handlers will get used to running more complicated sequences. Furthermore, dogs will be introduced to full height contact equipment (dog walk and A-frame) and learn how to weave in a straight line. This class is where everything you have learnt in foundations and basics come together and grow, and by the time you graduate your dog will be able to successfully complete a pre-novice level course and be able to weave in a straight line. After passing this class, you and your dog will have the necessary skill set to start entering agility competitions.

To avoid disappointment, please pay when you enrol.  Payment is due by the end of Friday before the term begins. 

Use the name of the person who will be training on the payment and the class name and term number as the reference e.g. Skills T 4

Disclaimer: The aim of Waikato Agility Group (WAG) is to instruct Handlers in how to teach their dogs to do agility. WAG endeavours to achieve this aim, but it must be recognised that not all dogs will reach competition level. While all care is taken by the committee and members of WAG, WAG is not liable/responsible for any injury sustained by any Dog/Handler during use of the equipment or due to any altercation with any other Dog. By paying the appropriate training and membership fees, the Handler agrees that the Handler is responsible for the actions of their Dog.
