Online Advanced Class
BECOMING A TEAM
This online class is made for young dogs from around 5 months of age. The aim is to deepen and proof the foundations which were already taught in the basic class. But of course new exercises are also waiting so it will be not boring. Lots of fun ahead!
GENERAL INFORMATION
The aim of this online course is to deepen and proof the elements learned in the basic class. Through various exercises we balance the strengths and weaknesses of the young dog and learn to trust our dog. We also take a look into first agilit steps.
Detailed information can be found below:
Start & Duration
→ WHEN DO THE NEXT COURSES START?
In contrast to a working spot an auditing spot can be booked and started at any time!
I offer working spots at the beginning of every second or third month. A participation in the basic class is required so I can be sure you are familiar to the previous exercises! Also the number of students is very limited and an early registration makes sense but doesn‘t guarantee a spot.
→ COURSE DURATION & SCHEDULE
There are 4 main lessons that appear weekly or bi-weekly so that there is enough time to rework.
- General information right after the course has started
- Lesson 1: 1 day after the course has started
- Lesson 2: 1 week after the course has started
- Lesson 3: 3 week after the course has started
- Lesson 4: 4 week after the course has started
Working spots receive 6 weeks of feedback on team-related questions and videos. General questions are allowed to be asked by everyone.
You have a total of 6 months access to all content. However, it is also possible to extend the access time after it has expired.

REQUIREMENTS
→ AGE OF THE DOG
This class is designed for young dogs from around 5 months of age. But of course it can’t hurt to refresh these foundations with young or even adult dogs!
→ Stand des Hundes
We will no longer deal with building the absolute foundations because that’s what the basic class is for. For a working spot it is required that you worked through the basic class as an auditor or especially as a working spot.
→ MATERIALS
In diesem Kurs benötigen wir ausser den üblichen Motivationsobjekten (verschiedene Spielzeuge, Leckerlis & allenfalls einen Futterautomat, wenn man damit arbeiten möchte) und einer Hundeliege bzw. Bettchen zudem eine grössere Pylone oder Laubtonne. Ebenso ist ein (kurzer) Tunnel sowie eine Hürde von Vorteil; jedoch kein Muss wer die expliziten Agility-Übungen nicht mitmachen möchte.
In this course you need in addition to the usual motivational objects (various toys, treats & possibly a food machine if you want to work with it) and a dog bed or bed, we also need a larger pylon or a barrel. A (short) tunnel and a jump is also needed; but not a must if you don’t want to do the agility exercises.
→ TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
Of course you need an internet-enabled device to access the protected member area which contains all course content and the forum. Facebook is not required!
As an working participant you should also have the option of filming yourself and your dog (for example with a smartphone and tripod) and uploading these videos externally (for example to a free YouTube account)!
