Have you registered yet for Treiball?

Treiball is an exciting new sport suitable for almost any dog, but perfect for the high energy, high drive dog. It can be taught and practiced just for fun, or you can join competitions. Regardless training for treiball can help take your communication to the next level with your dog! Training for Treiball helps build focus and off leash control while also being a great outlet for your dogs mental and physical energy.

Although Treiball is the word for Ball Herding, Comparing this activity to soccer for dogs is also an excellent description.

Here's a video to help you further understand Treiball.




Treiball begins Sunday November 14th! Don't forget our Agility skills class also starts that Sunday and is a prerequisite class for our Agility For Fun classes that will begin in January.

Interested in Agility or Treiball but not available Sunday afternoons? Email Wendy to discuss other dates for these two activities!
