Learning agility online with OneMind Dogs

Learn to handle threadles in a way your dog naturally understands

Threadles describe those situations on the agility course where the dog has to come towards the handler to approach an obstacle from the non-obvious side.

There are many ways to handle this situation in a way your dog will naturally understand, without lots of repetitions. The handling technique you choose will depend on the context of the course.
