YOU WILL NEED: -A comfortable harness -A long-line (I have spares just in case) -LOTS of treats. Something you can break into small pieces is best. Ham, chicken, and cheese are all good. You will need more treats than you think! -Water for you and your dog -Suitable footwear for mud and long grass -Waterproofs if needed- the session will go ahead unless there is a severe weather warning so come prepared! OPTIONAL: -A settle mat for your dog for the lunch break PLEASE NOTE: This activity IS suitable for dogs with anxiety, fearfulness, reactivity, and other behavioural issues. Dogs with complex needs are extremely welcome. However as this Foundations Course is a class structure and also held in a public park, there is a chance that dogs may approach without warning. If this is a problem for you or your dog then never fear! There is also an option on my booking page for a 1-1 course to allow your dog the freedom to learn Trail Hunt in a single-dog setting.
