Treibball is like a moving puzzle between you and your dog, and creates great mental and physical exercise on both ends of the leash. The skills for this sport include – distance, directional (steering at a distance), changing pace and speed, and being able to communicate with each other while far apart, and it builds incredible Team work.
Treibball is working as a Team both close together and far apart, which can be applied to most every other thing you do with your dog during your day.
Treibball is for all ages, puppy to senior, as the dog chooses their pace/speed.
Treibball equipment is super lightweight and affordable.
Treibball can be played in the yard, a park, or a larger field.
Treibball can be a daily puzzle solving game for you and your dog, or a competition sport.
Treibball never gets old, working with distance, directional, steering, pushing, and Team work, there are absolutely endless ways to play!

HANDLING THE REACTIVE ROVER WORKSHOP
Building Handler Skills
Whether your dog is -
- overly joyful and harming people with their exuberance
- fearful and put in over their skill level
- has had a previously bad experience with a person and/or dogs and is now offensive
- was never socialized to handle the environment in which you live
- a dog over your skill level and you are looking to rise to the occasion
This workshop will help you become the handler that your dog needs.
This workshop is NOT about changing your dogs behavior, it is about changing the Handlers - actions, choices, training skill level, observational skills, and knowledge. With appropriate handling and with more knowledge good things can happen on both ends of the leash, but it all starts with the Handler.
We will also be covering - each dogs diet and/or nourishment, physical and mental exercise, social and emotional balance both in the household and outside. We will be learning more about body language, movement, use of space socially and physically, health, connection in team, and so much more.
Each participant will fill out a history form, and I will meet one on one with each team for a half hour to go over specific details about the Team.
We will meet as a group via video chat.
As a group we will meet at our facility
Part of this workshop will be via remote - and part in person.
DATE - MONDAY's - October 10 - 24th
