Talking Dogs Rally Workshop with Cristen Brown - HANDLER

As a professional dog trainer for over 18 years and with a FdSc in Canine Behaviour and Training, Cris is extremely passionate about Talking Dogs Rally and has been competing since 2015 and is now qualified as a judge. She also enjoys trick training and competitive obedience, working with dogs daily through her business, Ruff Diamond Dog Training which was established in 2009.

Talking Dogs Rally is a fun sport that involves you and your dog working as a team to navigate a course whilst completing various fun and challenging exercises. It is a sport that is accessible to all that you can practice anywhere with no special equipment. Focusing on natural movement and balance by working your dog on both the left and the right and ensuring any disabilities of both the dog and handler are taken into consideration it really is a sport for all.

During the workshop I’ll introduce you to this fun sport including why I love it. We’ll have a go at several of the level 1 stations step by step with handy hints and tips. Then we’ll put it all together and have a go at a mini course.
