Running Time: 1 hour, 45 minutes
Release Date: 2011
The DVD addresses conditioning, attitude, games to play, dealing with stress, and making agility training more about running. Speed is definitely one of Silvia's favorite topics and having dogs that are constantly setting the best times of all jump heights, including setting the best time in her division at the FCI Agility World Championships 20 different times (16 times with La, 4 times with Bu, and Lo once had 2nd best time after La ) probably means she has something important to tell!
Silvia recommends this DVD to handlers who feel their dog could still run even faster and also to handlers who deal with motivational or stress issues. You'll also learn a lot about Silvia's approach to agility and the philosophy behind the training that makes the dogs just as fast as they are, and a lot about the conditioning that keeps the dogs that fast for a long time. This DVD will also give you a good look into Silvia's everyday life with her dogs as well as her agility training sessions. So no, it's not just for dogs with speed issues! Silvia says, "For me, it’s actually the most important pre-agility step and we follow the 33 tips all the time. And oh, it's mostly taken in beautiful Corsica mountains!"
