CANINE PARKOUR 1

Canine Parkour 1 is a 4-week intro series into the world of urban agility. Build your dog’s confidence with this low impact but challenging activity that can be done anywhere! This growing sport is suitable for dogs of all sizes, ages, and capabilities.

Throughout the course, teams will learn foundational parkour skills such as Get On (2 & 4 feet), Go Around, Get Inside, Under, Walk Back, and more. Topics covered include the benefits of parkour for everyday life, venue titling, basic spotting techniques, and how to submit for titles from the International Dog Parkour Association.

Prerequisites: Puppy 1 or equivalent. Dogs in this class will work simultaneously in a group setting, so it is not appropriate for reactive dogs. If you are unsure, please email for instructor permission.
