HUMAN CONDITIONING PROGRAM (Optional)
Our first item on the agenda each morning is functional fitness for humans. All are welcome. This will include interval runs (walk-jog-walk-jog) with a few interval sprints. This will be followed by YOGA and then some ladder exercise drills for footwork. For those interested in the human conditioning side please arrive at the field by 7:15 a.m. as we begin at 7:30 a.m. and finish around 8:15 a.m. and bring your YOGA MAT!!
CANINE CONDITIONING PROGRAM
Following the Human Conditioning Program, each day we will also be warming up our dogs with a specific warm up routine with dynamic warm up exercises. We will also go over a cool down routine as well. There will be a hand out with the exercises for each. Warm up routines should be perform whenever you take your dog out of the crate after a more than 20-30 minutes in the crate. And your cool down routine should be done after every working session.
As always, please pick up after your dogs. There will be trash cans around the outside of the field for this purpose. Also pick up any rubbish, plastic water bottles etc. that you leave at the field before you leave.
If anyone has a reactive dog, please let us know when we meet for our group get together on Saturday morning so that we are all aware and can be proactive about giving your dog his/her space and keep other dogs within a safe distance. Please feel free to contact me with any other questions and concerns prior to us starting so I can address it.
