Proven Techniques
For Every Obedience Dog
I have trained both traditional and non-traditional breeds and have helped hundreds of students do the same. It saddens me when I see a competitor struggle with a failing or lackluster performance.
I started coaching competitive students over 30 years ago, in classes, seminars, through writing and video. The Obedience Road is a culmination of all the information that I have available. I am committed to helping you reach your goals. It is my heart’s desire to support you! ~ Connie
Success Stories
From Our Members
"Gotta brag on my girl. She earned her UD today and did so in three trials with scores in the 190s. She was able to work through distractions and a handler who was flashing signals too quickly. While we’re new to the Obedience Road there are so many things we’ve incorporated in our training and trialing that helped us reach this goal."
"We finished our CDX today, with a score of 195. I want to thank Connie for teaching us that we can often fix a problem overnight! Yesterday, I was struggling with the change of position exercise. MY dog did not focus when I left him and walked away so he missed the first signal. I went home and practiced the attention, and it paid off!"
"I’ve been a lurker within the group but recently attended Connie’s incredible seminar. . . We upped our game on proofing! So happy to report that after a break from the obedience ring, we returned and made a clean sweep at our specialty! My goal, which I said outloud, was to get High Scoring Dog in Regular Classes and he did it! . . . Overall, 8 classes that weekend, 8 First Placements and both days HIT in Obedience and High Combined and High Combined Triple (Rally). I am over the moon!"
