Rod Roberts
Advanced Working Trials Training Course
Slingsby North Yorkshire
On 25th to the 29th April 2010
Arrive 24th leave 30th April 2010

As we move to the end of the intense part of the Spring Trials Season some issues will have shown up in the dogs work.
It has been said by a very experienced Competitor that
“a dog never comes back from a trial as good as it went”
My Advanced Trials course is the ideal time to start to address the problems however minor which have been thrown up by competing at multiple trials over a relatively short period.


This year’s course will be held on a mixed farm at Slingsby in Yorkshire, a venue we have successfully used many times in the past. The varying surfaces this venue has to offer should give us the variety when training for our sport. With the Minimum qualification of this course being UDex we will be looking to improve on the training details which make the difference between scraping an occasional qualification and consistently improving performances to the point where red rosettes are in sight.

This advanced Course with its Small numbers means that the training can be very dog and problem specific and with 5 days of training we will be able to make a real difference.

Many handlers who have been trained by Rod previously, have succeeded in the higher Working Trial stakes, many have attained TDex or PDex, several have made their dogs into Working Trial Champions.
Some are even training others in Working Trials

The investment for the Course is £320
Details of the local accommodation will be available if required

Rod Roberts
Comprehensive Working Trials
Training Course
Slingsby North Yorkshire

On 5th to the 9th September 2010
Arrive 4th leave 10th September

Comprehensive not only by name but also by nature and content this course is designed to cover every thing in working trials from the most basic of the exercises to the final polish you will require when you reach the dizzy heights of the ticket classes.
Rod training is both detailed and precise working from the basic’s of maintaining motivation and teaching skills in both dog and handler.
It always has to be remembered that all dogs are individuals and need to be trained as such a further fact that has to be born in mind is that all the handlers are individual’s and the instruction has to reflect this individuality.

We Are Returning to Slingsby again this year as it is without doubt one of the best Venue’s for Working Trials in the country.


There will be practical work during the day, with Tracking, Search Squares, Sendaway, and Control and Agility, (limited manwork also available). Learn the theory behind the work you do with interesting lectures in the evenings accompanied by full printed notes. Enjoy yourself on the night exercise, join in the session of games - designed for fun but with the working trials exercises in mind.
Investment for the Course £280
