Building Blocks for Elite and Summit Webinar Instructor Wendy Krehbiel Learn how to master the transition from NW3 to the Elite and Summit levels by deconstructing high-level challenges into foundational building blocks.

This webinar details the transition from NW3 to the Elite and Summit levels by deconstructing high-level challenges into foundational building blocks. Instead of focusing solely on "big picture" trial scenarios, we will look at revisiting core skills to improve dog understanding and handler mechanics.

Key topics include:

Hide Complexity: Systematic progression in elevation, inaccessible hides, and converging odor.
Search Skills: Managing thresholds, navigating blank spaces, and building the "searching for nothing" mindset.
Stamina: Developing the physical and mental resilience of the dog required for searches lasting up to 8 minutes in large, novel environments.
By layering these specific challenges, teams develop the technical proficiency and frustration tolerance necessary for the sport's highest levels.

Should You Take This Webinar

Who would benefit from this webinar?

NW3 teams looking forward to the transition to Elite trials.
Elite teams wanting to prepare for Summit challenges.
NW1/NW2 teams wanting to start laying the foundation for their future success at the Elite & Summit levels.
Instructors wanting to support their students.

Very well organized and presented
