Starters Class Circuit

Starters Class - for you next class you will be doing a circuit. We decided to record it for you so you can see what you need to practice this week. It is recorded in two parts, Coffee and Sydney starting and Ube and Me finishing. The two dogs are together doing the circuit. But you and your dog will do it all. You will be allowed three errors, and then you are done. Here are the videos. Watch and listen and you will here what is being done.
