The Conversation of Teamwork
Dana Zinn and Sue Sternberg
LOCATION: Northwest District Park, 2413 Woody Store Rd, Siler City, NC 27344
DATES: Sat April 13 and Sun April 14, 2019
TIME: 9 am to 4 pm
Cost $150 to Audit both days
Throughout this two day workshop, Nosework participants—auditors and working teams both—will learn about what their own movements, paths, speed and orientation are saying to the dog, and about what the dog is saying to the handler, with his movement, path, speed and orientation.
Sue will, through analysis of videos submitted by auditors and footage from other sports, help handlers understand what they are deliberately or inadvertently communicating to their dogs. Dana will, through lecture and coaching of working teams, help handlers better understand what their dogs are asking for and telling them, and then offer concrete ways to respond.
Attendees will come away with a skill set of handling choices to make and when to use them, so that teams can move fluidly and consistently, and remove the differences that often occur when the handler knows where the hides are in practice versus running blind in a trial.
Auditors will submit a trial video for review during the workshop.
