Having your dog collect his stride when you ask is the cornerstone of fast, efficient agility performance.
When a dog understands how to collect, they tend to be more sensible about choosing a take-off spot, and less likely to throw themselves over the jump — with the added benefit of more impulse control.
Slowing down is not 'collecting'. A dog that has been taught the 'goal' of collection understands to gather and commit to the next obstacle with drive and confidence. Refusals happen because the dog doesn't understand the job.
Collection is hard work. Increase your dog's strength, flexibility and understanding for safer jumping using controlled, sport-specific drills. Teach your dog how to remain balanced and in control to get faster, safer, structure-appropriate turns.
Turning while jumping is a complex behaviour, and teaching your dog to collect is a critical part of jumping safely, as well as faster times, efficient lines, and fewer knocked bars.
But teaching collection is not as simple as slowing your dog down to turn.
Here are some components of collection:
...to name a few.
Why keep suffering with wide turns, refusals, off-courses or injury because your dog doesn't understand collection?

I was able to test this system at a training session in a different environment where I knew she would be ‘higher’. I thought to myself, "is this behavior going to hold up?"… I was a bit nervous. She was amazing! No matter where I was, behind, in front, lateral of her position, she was dead on. Huge difference in running her now, yay!!
Thank you ... this was the missing piece of our training!
