Winter's chill shouldn't freeze your dog's agility training. Even if your yard is covered in snow from November through March, you can still keep the momentum going by bringing your sessions indoors.
Get creative with your training spots. Hallways, basements, or garages can be transformed into training areas. Before the snow sets in, ensure your equipment is protected?"store it in your garage, shed, or basement, or cover it with a tarp. Gradually bring in each piece for your indoor sessions.
A Pause Table is a fantastic starting point for indoor training. We always have one in our living room for both obedience and agility practice. It’s perfect for honing obedience skills and teaching agility commands.
Don’t neglect contact training either. A Contact Trainer allows indoor practice by offering a versatile setup?"comprising an A-frame side, a Pause Table, and a Dog-walk plank. Just a few minutes a day on “two feet on, two feet off” exercises can stabilize your dog’s behavior.
For indoor jumping, proceed with caution. Without proper matting, avoid jumps on hard surfaces like concrete or wood. Instead, use the jump uprights to practice handling your dog's path with Sit-stay or Down-stay commands.
Weave exercises can also be done indoors. Whether using a weave-chute or straight-line weaves, dedicating just five minutes a day will have your dog weaving effortlessly come spring. Focus on entries, sends, or recalls.
Consider investing in mini agility equipment, which doesn’t require as much space. Mini-teeters, mini-dog walks, and mini-A-frames are excellent options for indoor and puppy training.
So, during winter’s chill, continue with your agility routines. Whether you’re training a young pup, a novice, or an experienced dog, there's always an opportunity to improve and have fun indoors.
