CONSENT SHOULD BE ENTHUSIASTICALLY GIVEN
As trainers and partners of competitive sports dogs we have a responsibility to ensure both their emotional, and physical wellbeing is cared for.
A huge component of this is integrating consent into life, and sports.

💜 Griddles learning to be confident on the treadmill while it's moving, using movement patterns! 💜
Part of developing your canine fitness workouts is learning.
💜 What the purpose of an exercise is
💜 Why it is, or is not, appropriate for an individual dog
💜 How to ensure your dog performs it in good form
This requires you to develop YOUR knowledge and understanding, AND your handling and training skills.

Check out Chace (chocolate merle Border Collie looking at the packet), Flori and Grid (black and red spaniels running into shot to eat from a bowl), and the other animals from the Nood Pet Food shoot on billboards in New York!!
💜 Shoot wrangled by Hybrid Dog Training 💜
💜 A focus on form 💜
My focus this month with my dogs is to focus on form, with the goal to make each rep better. It didn't start well with this session with Grid.... messy feet, lots of movement, over arousal.
But we persisted, did a few soothing strategies, and ended with these reps which I was happy with!
Which stretch should you use? When? Why?
Join me in the @fenzidogsportsacademy workshop 'Bend and Stretch'
We'll be looking at what flexibility and mobility are, anatomy, which type of stretch is lost appropriate, and when, and then a ton of stretching exercises!
Check it out and sign up here. Working spots (submit a video for feedback) are limited.

Do you sometimes struggle with what to do in a canine fitness workout? How to advance it? Maybe you just need a complete workout to follow without having to decide what to train?
Then my 'Will to Workout' @fenzidogsportsacademy workshop is for you!
This workshop will introduce the key canine fitness principles, discuss the components to a workout, how to structure your fitness sessions over a week, and then run through one complete general workout from beginner level in each exercise, to a more advanced level of each exercise.
This workshop would suit anyone interested in increasing their dogs fitness, and being more structured in the fitness work that they do over a week. This would suit pet dogs through to dogs competing in a range of physically demanding sports. Dog’s participating in this workshop need to have clearance to be doing fitness training.
This workshop would be the first in a series that will cover a range of fitness concepts, and provide different workouts.
