What drives me to create the Drills Ignited series is the simple fact that, like everyone else, I sometimes struggle to find the motivation to go out and train—especially training on my own. Deciding what to train and facing the idea of setting up all the jumps, moving tunnels, and arranging equipment can feel overwhelming and stops me before I even begin. For some they are not lucky enough to be able to set this up in their backyard but with 4-5 jumps and 1 tunnel it’s not a huge amount of equipment needed (especially if you only have a 3m tunnel)
But if I have a plan—a reason, and something easy to follow—Something I can set up and train lots of different things on, I’m far more likely to make it happen. That’s why I developed these drills: to motivate myself to train my own dogs. And since I know I’m not the only one who feels this way,
Drills Ignited was born.
3 lessons with 3 drills in each = 9 sequences all up - Plus each Drill has 3 mini Sequences = 27 mini sequences TOTAL 36 ideas
Level: We use all skills from back of jump, tight wraps, tunnel & jump threadles, YES these can be broken down, however, it's only fair if they have an understanding of the skill we are testing.
What you get:
-
3 Easy-to-Follow Lessons: Each lesson is broken down into simple steps, so you know exactly what to do next.
-
3 Unique Drills per Lesson: Every lesson includes three different drills, each designed to build your skills, confidence and understanding.
-
Mini Sequences for real progress: Inside each drill, you’ll find three mini sequences—quick, focused exercises that test your skills, show you different ways to handle each situation, and keep things fresh for you and your dog.
-
“Are You Listening?” Challenges: These special mini tests help you see if your dog is truly learning or just following patterns, making training more effective and fun!
-
Step-by-Step PDF maps & instructions: Follow along easily with clear instructions and tips for every part.
-
Videos for Every Sequence: Watch a video for each mini sequence and the full drill—plus, enjoy slow-motion replays so you can see every detail and feel confident about what to do.
-
One-Click Access to Every Drill: This year, each drill has its own video, right inside the lesson. Jump straight to any drill or lesson and start training—no searching or skipping around needed
Feedback- for those working- This is not an unlimited amount of video to receive feedback, but within reason, approx. 5 minutes per week of cut-down video to see your progress and receive feedback on how you can improve, tweaks and changes you can make, assess your rewarding & general progression.
