TRICKILITY
H.I.P. TRICKILITY -- Tricks + Agility =
A Whole New Way to Have a Whole Lot of Fun!
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2008
1:00 PM - One hour session - Six Week Course
H.I.P. TRICKILITY is a new activity for owners and their dogs created by Hand in Paw trainer Christy Paxton.
TRICKILITY combines AGILITY with TRICKS. Dogs cover a course with low-level obstacles and perform tricks between the obstacles.
There are various difficulty levels ranging from easy (with obedience commands like Sit and Down as the tricks) to moderate (Roll over, Shake, etc.) to advanced (linked behaviors featuring multiple moves, for example, crawling and playing dead, pulling a wagon for a short distance, retrieving specific items and so on).
Sample courses:
EASY

The point is to have as much FUN as possible, while getting your dog to respond to you and accomplish great things so he can feel proud of himself!
