It’s been a busy but great 2 weeks! I had a fantastic time on this course. Massive well done to all the new instructors. Thank you Kathryn Trailing K9s for inviting me to the party 😁
Introducing Seven New Trailing K9s Academy Instructors 🙌
Five hard working trainers become instructors, accompanied by two experienced trailing instructors helping.
I have had the best five days, and it's been an amazing journey starting a few weeks ago on the first part of the course from newbies to fully fledged instructors.
Today in Newtown they were tasked to set up specific trails for real clients, in a real environment and meet criteria set for them, which they all smashed.
This hands on course provides each and every instructor with not just the theory of trailing, but the practical skills to set up trails for new and experienced teams, add in tracking skills or start with them, as well as mantrailing skills.
It's all about tools in the tools box, and progressing clients as individuals
Huge thank you to Jen from Jen & 3 Bull Terriers for her help all week as a new instructor herself, it's been invaluable to have her on the course. Along with Katie from KC canine and Lynsey from All Seasons Mantrailing
Huge thank you for the clients attending today to be Stooges for the instructors today, you make all the difference to the instructors learning.
