Creative Canine-Focused Moves

Add some Beats!

What makes Freestyle such a Far-Reaching Activity?
Develop your Patience
Have you ever felt frustrated or lost your patience with your dog? - we probably all have. Training your dog to do tricks helps you to let go of your expectations and you can just enjoy “living in the moment”. When you don’t expect instant results, it’s much easier to break down your training goal into a progression of small steps. This will make it much easier for your dog to succeed, and your bond will grow.
Exercise Mind & Body
When training your dog, it’s easy to get focused on obedience – heel, sit, stay, down, etc. – and just drill it into your dog day after day, session after session. What if, when you were young, your parents decided to just teach you five words? They kept you isolated, and those were the only five words you ever learned. Break yourself free from your routine and have fun teaching your dog a new tricks, and become more successful in communicating with your canine partner.
Make your dog smarter
Learning something new is incredibly powerful for boosting confidence. Many shy dogs learn to enjoy going to new spaces and become excited to explore them rather than being terrified. Often tricks can help bridge the gap of understanding between human and dog. We are both complex creatures and low-stress learning can really help us figure out how to read each other. It's also a wonderful way to build a bond with your dog. Dogs can quickly learn to trust you when they are heavily reinforced for activities.
BuILD FOCUS & Reliability
Focusing on a single task and solving problems is very rewarding, but also exhausting. Paired with the soothing effects of sniffing, Scent Work is the most powerful activity to tire out a hyperactive dog. Your dog will learn to work with distractions. Group classes present your dog with many distractions, but if you consistently reward him for watching you and listening to you, soon your dog will pay much less attention to extraneous stimuli in any setting when you ask him to focus. This ability, will come in handy when out and about; it even increases your dog’s safety while he is walking with you near busy streets or crowded areas.
