CTC Canine Companion Class

Here is a sample video of various dogs working the challenges of the CTC Canine Companion class.  To qualify the dog/handler teams must show their talents with social exposure, stay in place with distractions, trust with crossing the narrow plank, send away, moving wait with a redirected send away, a long distance send to a designated mark position, walking off lead with handler, performing a sit and down in place, and negotiating the step up platforms with confidence.  

With Canine Companion training, you help to create a great foundation for you and your dog to participate in various environments with confidence, calmness, and control.  With the variety of tests from close up work to some beginning distance work, you will have a well rounded versatile companion!

​As the team continues up to the higher levels, the more exciting and rewarding the training becomes!

A well trained dog is a happy dog! 

The better training a dog has, the more freedom he earns, and the more trust there is between dog and owner.
