What
is the seminar and what makes it unique from all the others out there.
What
this seminar is, is a chance to explore and learn new ways of handling
the dog that you have. To improve your handling of your dog!
Not every dog is or can be a blistering fast speed deamon, just as not
every dog has to work and struggle to make time. There are
handling techniques that are unique to each type of dog. There are
ways of handling each dog to its fullest potential.
Do
not come to this seminar expecting to learn some new hot move, or
expecting to learn the secret to having .5 second weave poles.
Come to this seminar to get real world ideas on how to handle and
improve your working with your companion.

learn to handle by sitting down you learn to handle by doing.
Bring lots of treats, lots of toys, lots of water and be prepared to
learn, train and run!

WHO
AM I |
My
Name is Carol
Fatheree
and I am a computer programmer for NCI Building Systems in Houston
Texas. That is what I do in the real world. In the dog
world I have been involved in showing and training dogs for 10
years. I started my career in dogs with my little 3 lb spit
fire U-CDX Rayjoy's Dixie Darling CDX, AX, AAD, FD, CGC....
U-CD Ruff N Rowdy Rangler CDX (HOF) was my second dog also a
pomeranian who was my first dog to earn a dog world award in
acquiring his CD and he was also my first all breed HIT winner.
Due to bad knees he was unable to play in agility. After
training the 2 poms I determined that I needed another breed to fit
my lifestyle. I searched and researched and determined I
wanted a Border Collie, I now have
OTCH,
ADCH, ONYX, U-CDX Bugaboo's Ragin Cajun UDX, MX, MXJ, TD, ASCA-UD,
ADC, EAC, EGC, EJC, RS-E, GS-E, JS-E, CGC (9 year old male) and
CH,
MACH2, ADCH, U-CDX Wildfire Le Bon Ton Roulette VCD3, ASCA-CD, EAC, EGC, EJC, RS-E, GS-E, JS-E, FMX, CGC (1998 AKC National
Agility Champion 20", 3rd place AKC Nationals 2000 24",
4th in the 2001 AKC Agility Invatational) (4 year old male),
Wildfire Fidelis Le Cajun Lagniappe (10 month old bitch)
and
Bugaboos Le Cajun Mardi Gras (3
months old bitch)....
Now
the question is what do I have to offer you in a semianr. I
have been doing agility for 10 years and during those 10 years I
have handled many different breeds and run many different style of
dogs. I have shown and titled pomeranians, jack russell
terriers, cockers spaniel, am staff terrier, australian shepherd,
sheltie and border collies. Each of these breeds required
different ways of handling. Successfully handling each of
these dogs have given me a broad spectrum in viewing courses with
finding different successful ways to handle sequences. I would
like to share these insites with you and your canine partners!!
