Do you want to develop a better team, improving their motivations and your handling? Britney Imhof will be presenting two one-day seminars. On Saturday the focus will be on helping the newer teams (Novice & Open dogs) develop a stronger working team and increase dog motivation. On Sunday she will work with the experienced teams (Excellent/Master dogs) to enhance performance by strengthening the team bond, communication and motivation.

Britney was a member of the AKC European Open Team traveling to France and a World Agility Open gold medalist. She has been a finalist in a number of AKC and USDAA championships and was in the Top 10 USDAA Dogs in 2015. She currently runs a Brittany – Pan and a Papillion – Bilbo
