Everything! I love the practical exercises we can do. I really like the slides, they are so helpful later on when we need to check. I think I especially love that Holly’s love of the game and her dogs comes through. Loved it all.

Really enjoyed the skills to try to build endurance and thoughtfulness. Also love that Holly emphasizes this being a game and people should be having fun - agree 100%.
Christina B. Detective and Summit: Compare and Prepare Webinar
Delighted that I'll have the opportunity to review it again (and again). I know I didn't absorb it all this evening (this is not a criticism of the presenter!!) The organization of the material REALLY helped me -- skills you need for one, skills you need for both, exercises/games to train each type of necessary skill grouped by outcome you are trying to achieve (endurance, coverage, etc.). Priceless!
Judith F. Detective and Summit: Compare and Prepare Webinar
I learned so much. We are trialing in Detective in AKC and are working on our last NW3 leg. We are a ways from Summit, but I always want to learn as much as I can. The focus on fun and the entire training and trialing process, including enjoyment of the location of the trial instead of just the ribbon is important.
