🎉 INTRODUCING... K9 GROUNDWORK 🎉
There is NO OTHER membership of this kind on the market, created by a dog trainer, international agility competitor AND canine physio.
Whether you have a puppy, a dog new to canine fitness, or want to refresh your dog's fitness foundation behaviours, this membership is for you!
This membership has it all! From learning how to prepare for a new puppy's arrival to canine fitness foundation exercises and everything in between!
K9 Groundwork was created by merging content from two of our most successful programs, From The Ground Up and Walk The Plank, and adding even more content!
Hundreds of students have taken these programs over the past five years and have seen significant progress and results by implementing our layered approach to canine fitness (more on that below).
HERE'S WHAT YOU'LL GET INSIDE K9 GROUNDWORK
👀 GET A SNEAK PEEK OF THE K9 GROUNDWORK MEMBERSHIP MODULES! 👀
And remember, the K9 Groundwork database WILL KEEP GROWING! These are just some of the initial modules.
As we continue to add content to the membership site, you'll have access to even more material. The best part? Your membership price will NOT increase!
At MCR, we implement a LAYERED APPROACH in how we train our fitness exercises!
Why do we take this approach?
- To build and protect your dog's confidence.
- To accelerate your dog's learning.
- To create more clarity around the behaviours and exercises we are training!
- To limit and reduce your frustrations with repeated failure.
- To improve your consistency in the canine gym!
- To enhance the relationship with your dog.
- To maximize your efficiency in the canine gym.
- To get faster results!
Meet Grey - the newest pack member of the MCR team!
And a big inspiration to create K9 Groundwork! 😉
Cassbar The Trilogy is Complete: "Grey" is Carolyn McIntyre's newest addition, completing her Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy and rounding out her pack to six members! 🐕
Grey couldn't have come at a better time! Carolyn will start Grey's agility and foundation training just as you begin working through this membership.
👀 Get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at what Carolyn, a canine physio and multiple Team Canada member, focuses on with Grey at every stage of puppyhood.
She will walk you through EACH training session, showing you WHAT she does and HOW she does it.
Carolyn has welcomed four puppies within the past five years and has never shared this type of content before!
Unlike the other modules, Grey's training will be added to the membership in stages as he grows.
What if your puppy is older than Grey? 🤔 No worries! We recommend reviewing all the puppy foundation training modules and reinforcing the foundational exercises with your older pup. Remember, canine fitness foundations benefit dogs of ALL ages!
WHY BOTHER WITH CANINE FITNESS FOUNDATIONS?
Balanced dogs use BOTH sides of their body evenly, meaning there's less compensation, more fluent movement, more efficient training, and less risk of injury.
☑️Fitness foundations teach your puppy how to move their bodies properly for their upcoming lifestyle and activities
☑️Fitness foundations build and improve your relationship with your dog and provide you with one-on-one time, which is essential in a multi-dog household!
☑️Fitness foundations improve your dog's confidence - no matter their age!
☑️Fitness Foundations teach your young puppy how to earn reinforcement
☑️Fitness foundations teach problem-solving and develop critical-thinking skills
☑️Fitness foundations lay down the groundwork for more advanced exercises
☑️Fitness foundations provide mental and physical stimulation
FITNESS FOUNDATIONS HAVE COUNTLESS BENEFITS FOR OUR DOG'S HEALTH!
They said it - not us!
Hear from past students who took Walk The Plank and From The Ground Up, the courses that inspired this BRAND NEW Membership.
From day one, Carolyn has shown how, with some time, effort, and dedication, you can be a great fitness leader for your dog!
The lessons teach you how to build, troubleshoot and execute truly transformational exercises that your dog will benefit from every day of your life. The ongoing support throughout is fantastic, and no question goes unanswered. If you have a dog, you need this course.
____ Mandy Light
My border collie, Vesper, loves being challenged mentally and physically, which this course (From The Ground Up) provides.
Not only does she reduce her risk of injury and get fitter, but she also allows us to do something together other than overdoing it on off-leash or dog sports.
FGU has been wonderful to work through during rehabilitation, and we are coming out stronger than ever.
____ Justine Rudniski
I've taken some canine conditioning classes but always seemed stuck at the same places.
Carolyn has provided in-depth details on "how to train" for each exercise. I now know what to look for in my dog's form and my mechanics to course-correct as needed.
I genuinely love our progress in this class (From The Ground Up).
____ Liana Hsu
I am so impressed with From the Ground Up! This course is packed with helpful, informative, step-by-step instructions on conditioning exercises, and the best thing is that completing each module is FUN for both of us.
I have taken many online courses, and I will retake this one repeatedly for my dog's lifetime, adding new challenges as he improves his skills.
Thank you, Carolyn!
____ Pat Vokes
I took Walk the Plank for my new 7-week-old puppies so they could have the best start in life before they go to their new homes.
The course was well-designed, clear and suitable for young puppy bodies.
By 10 weeks old, the pups could hold stacks and do sits and quickly build good muscle tone.
I’m thankful that this course gave my puppies the best foundation for whatever they want to do in life!
____ Elim Cheng
From The Ground Up encouraged me to be more aware of my training skills.
It helped me improve my handler mechanics and provided a fun way for my dog and I to learn together.
Carolyn provides a tremendous wealth of knowledge and expertise, and I have become a much better handler and training partner since completing the program.
