Class Description 

Get ready for a new AKC Fetch title with this class for all levels of Fetch.  This class will instruct handlers on rules and regulations for AKC Fetch at each level.  We will practice line manners, marking, and retrieving skills.  Dogs must be over 6 months old and not be reactive to people or other dogs.  

Long leads, bumpers, etc will be provided for this class.  Please bring plenty of water as we are working outdoors in the fenced in area behind the MADTA building.   

AKC Fetch is a pass-fail noncompetitive test.  At the Novice level, dogs will retrieve a ball, bumper or toy at a distance of 30 feet navigating between four obstacles three times.  At the Intermediate level, dogs will retrieve a ball, bumper or toy at a distance of 50 feet navigating between 8 obstacles three times.  In the Advanced and Retriever levels, the dog must respond correctly to signals. There is also a memory component in Advanced and Retriever because a retrieving bumper or ball is dropped (or thrown) behind a blind where it cannot be seen.

Crates are required for this class.  Dogs can be crated in your car or outdoors under the canopy while not working
