Pawsitive Performance 4PDW 2016

Why K9 Conditioning?
Whether you and your dog participate in Agility, Flyball, Herding,
Schutzhund, NoseWork, Obedience, Conformation or just hiking,
make sure that your canine partner is up to the task.
Strength training is the missing piece of the puzzle for many K9
athletes. More time and money is spent on fixing dogs’ injuries than
preventing them. Learn how to build core strength, improve balance,
increase flexibility and range of motion, build confidence, increase
hind-end awareness, reduce the risk of injury and improve your dog’s overall performance.
The importance and benefits of warm up and cool down exercises will also be discussed and
demonstrated.

Workshops & Private Sessions
Incorporating these exercises into your dog’s routine is FUN, a great bonding experience,
physically and mentally stimulate your dog, and they are easily done at home.
