Disc Dog Foundation Class

Pawsitive Vybe Disc Dog Foundation class is six weeks long and is for all skill levels

For the Pro

Before you write this class off as ‘too basic’ ask yourself these questions?

Can my dog go around both ways? Can we scoot from front, heel and side positions? Do we have good team movement when a disc is not in the air? Do I throw discs that make my dog look good? Do we have good clean vaults and how easy is it to create new vaults? Can we create and perform new sequences in just a few minutes?

If your answers to these questions are not all a simple, “Yes,” then this class will benefit you and your dog.

For the Noob

A strong foundation allows you to execute just about any jam you envision in your head. Mastery of position, team movement, and throwing are critical for epic disc dog freestyle performance.

Disc Dog freestyle sequences have a starting position, often it is Front Position – dog standing in front of the handler. Set Up Moves are ways of getting set up in time and space. They get the team into position and in time.
Most players have a go-to Set Up Move, or 3, but it is important to have a variety of entries into the positions that start sequences to keep things interesting and to display and enhance flow.
In this epic video there are 13 different set up moves, some are fairly standard, and some are pretty clever. Below we’ll name and define them and talk about usage and pros and cons.

Throwing With Intent

Throwing with Intent is throwing a disc to your dog with the intent to make them look good. Throwing the disc to promote a big leap, to hit the dog in stride on the run or throwing a disc that your dog is going to flip for 10 yards away, is the sign of a mature handler.
