LindaI started agility training in 1998 and competing in 1999. Currently I am
training my 8th agility dog. I have trained and competed with 5 Pembroke
Welsh Corgis and 2 Beagles. Currently I have a 2 year old Pembroke Welsh
Corgi in training. I have qualified for and competed at both USDAA Agility
Nationals and AKC Agility Nationals. My dogs have earned MACHs and ADCHs
as well as many masters levels titles. I currently train with Judy Kolva and
participate in seminars each year with Britney Imhoff and Donna Brown. Most
of my training is based on One Mind Dogs, Control Unleashed and In Focus but
I am open to many training techniques and ideas. Building confidence in dogs
and handlers and using positive techniques that work for each unique team is
my main goal.
