McCann Dogs Agility - After Class Podcast
Kids & Family:Pets & Animals
We are SO excited to have our very first guest on the Podcast. Jaakko Suoknuutti is an accomplished Agility Handler & Coach who is widely respected in the Sport of Agility. He & his partner Janita Leinonen are the creators of the popular handling methodology OneMind Dogs. They've both been a part of Team Finland for many years and earned many world championship titles.
Jaakko and Kayl met back in 2012 and became fast friends. Kayl spent many years traveling to Finland to train and Jaakko would travel to Canada to coach the McCann Dogs Agility group. Jaakko has the unique ability to see an Agility course from the dogs perspective which gives him the ability to teach, handle, design courses and coach students at a whole new level. We are very honoured to have him as our guest today!
In Part 1 of this 2 part podcast, Jaakko & the girls discuss the many facets of becoming a better handler for our dogs by understanding what our DOG needs from us as we navigate a course. We're going to share with you the concept of "CCC" - Connect, Commit & Cue which are the 3 steps that have to happen between every obstacle on course!
Be sure to check out Part 2 (Launching July 2, 2021) where we continue to deep dive into the best ways to walk a course, REALLY knowing & understanding your dog and the life changing topic of "Lead Changes". You don't want to miss it!
~~~~~~~~ About this Podcast.
