swim coach training

[Basic]

3- half day workshop: this will take place are Mon 1/2 day; Tues 1/2 day and Thurs evening. Plan on 3-4 hours per session depending on how many students participate.

This will be a basic intro into Canine Aquatic Fitness. We will be focusing on getting a "none water" dog comfortable in the pool including entering the pool which seems to be very daunting for many pups. This part of training I feel is very important, not only are you dealing with a frightened dog but the parents are stressed as well, so getting EVERYONE relaxed is challenging.

We will be discussing client rapport and pool maintenance (an art in itself!

)

You will be exposed to several types of dogs and the reason why they are coming to TRC. This will include big dogs; small dogs; dogs with injuries and dogs with age problems ( at times dealing with end of life issues)
