This course focuses on trick training and heel work whilst sequencing moves together into a dance routine to the fantastic track 'This Is Me' from The Greatest Showman. This course may be light hearted but you need to show willing to practice the moves in between sessions to grow your dogs confidence. Your dog needs to have a sound level of heel training (doesn't have to be perfect!) to attend this course. A 'Intro to Heelwork To Music' workshop is available if you'd like a taster session prior to signing up or to see if your dog (and you!) enjoy it! Details are further down the page. The course holds up to 5 dogs plus handlers.
