FUN TRIals & AWards scheme
Canine Behaviour Guernsey has recently launched our Fun Trials & Award Scheme. This scheme is designed to give owners and their dogs something that little bit extra to work towards during their coaching journey, whether that is for puppy training, behaviour & continued life skills or their chosen fun sport - scentwork & detection or agility & fitness.
The Fun Trials & Awards will be carried out across three categories:
For all three categories there will be four different levels of trials and awards; Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum. There are different criteria that need to be met for each level with difficulty increasing with each one.
Upon achieving each award, you will earn yourself a Canine Behaviour Guernsey Title!
Life skills & Tricks
For the Life Skills & Tricks category, all Canine Behaviour Guernsey clients, whether they have done life skills classes or 1-2-1 sessions, are able to take part if they would like but it is not mandatory.
The Bronze and Silver trials can be carried out in the owner's free time. This is subject to videos being submitted demonstrating that the owner and dog has met the criteria to achieve the award. A £20 entry fee for administration purposes applies. For Gold and Platinum, some of the exercises can be submitted by video, however some of the criteria will need to be judged by us in person during a 1-2-1 training session.
For more information on how to take part and for a copy of the award criteria please email us at [email protected].
Scentwork & Detection and Agility & Fitness
The format for the trials for both Scentwork & Detection and Agility & Fitness will form part of the class structure and will be judged during classes. More information will be provided to owners as they attend the courses.
