Even if you don’t pursue a sport, you can use the skills, techniques, and equipment used in these sports to make your outdoor time with your dog this winter more enriching, safe, and fun! Join presenter Meg Beisner as she covers:

The evolution of winter dog sports – it’s more than just mushing!
An overview of some of the most popular winter dog sports
Maintaining your dog’s health and safety while engaging in winter activities
Appropriate gear
Training for winter sports and activities
Resources and clubs to check out for more information.

It is a low-impact, positive, force-free sport, suitable for all breeds. The dog learns how to direct the ball into a goal. At higher levels the dog will drive as many as eight balls into the goal.
Come to the Demo and meet other Treibball enthusiasts and learn more! It’s free and open to members and non-members.
