Canine High Jinks Podcast

Ashley Deacon joins us and talks course design. Hear Ashley's thoughts on safety, trends, and what he wishes more competitors knew.

Whitney and Elissa talk about somethings they wish they knew earlier in their agility career.

Whitney talks about her experience at World Team Tryouts this year. Learn about how to qualify for WTT, what it's like to prepare, the atmosphere, scoring, and so much more.

Do you have to be fast to be successful in dog agility?

Today’s tough question, how do you know if you should retire your young(er) dog from agility?

All about startline stays!

Peyton Green, agility instructor at Corral Creek Dog Sport Center, talks through obstacle commitment: how to build it, test it and fix it when you broke it. We dive into the difference between sending, and opposite handler motion and what this means for distance handling. And...maybe why those verbals aren't the salve you thought they were.

Whitney and Elissa tackle a big topic...feedback. We get it from each other, our instructors, our dogs. We give it, maybe when we shouldn't. Listen in as we walk through many of the permutations of feedback and how we can maybe be a bit better at it overall.

Our long awaited episode that we recorded all the back in May of 2023. This episode has a bit of a different flavor since we are sitting outside under a canopy of trees surrounded by fellow agility competitors.

Here it is! A brand new episode! Listen and learn what we have been up to while we have been away from the mic. We will also tell you about what is changing with the podcast and what will stay the same. We hope you will tune in and listen.
