TREIBBALL SEMINAR “LET’S HERD BALLS”
SATURDAY OR SUNDAY - March 17 or March 18, 2012
PRESENTED BY - PAT MILLER, CPDT, CDBC
Treibball is a competitive dog sport that is based on sheep herding. The “sheep” are balls that the dog is taught to push/herd into a pen. The handler will direct the dog off leash using 8 balls (sheep), with obedience and herding signals. All balls must be in the pen in 15 minutes and then the dog lies down at the entrance to the pen to keep the balls/sheep in. Click here to learn more about this exciting seminar!
