Flatwork-Foundation For Agility by Barb Levenson £10.00 Flatwork is about what happens between the obstacles. Your dog spends more time between the obstacles running with you on the flat than he does performing the obstacles. It's on the flat that you set up your dog's approach to the next obstacle, where you as handler do most of your job guiding the dog. Performing flatwork successfully requires excellent communication between dog and handler. Learn to develop a communication system with your dog as you teach him each maneuver with the distraction of obstacles. As you follow this training program, you will develop a set of cues and movements that indicate specific behaviors to the dog, and you will become aware of exactly what your body is really saying to your dog!
