For 2026

Marion will be presenting "Are You Ring-Ready?"
This seminar emphasizes practical strategies for preparing to show at each level once your dog is fully trained on each exercise.
We will cover ensuring exercise fluency (proofing—what to do and what not to do), minimizing food and toy dependence, setting goals & planning a show career, structuring training in the weeks immediately prior to a show, what to do at the show including ring rentals and how to use them, handling show conflicts, warm-ups and cool-downs, mental preparation to foster showing like you train, handling tips in the ring, using fix and gos, and strategies for maintaining the experienced performance dog.
Registration is now open.
Private lessons available Monday, April 20, 2026. Seminar attendees have first priority for privates.
