BARN  HUNT

Trainer:
​Robbin Grabowski
This is a class that is open to all dog breeds and dogs who are at least 6 months old. No prior training is required. Due to the nature of this sport only one dog will be working on the course at a time.
Training topics taught in classes will include:
  • Overview of Barn Hunt Rules
  • Introducing your dog to a live Rat
  • How to navigate a straw bale course
  • Trial preparation
  • The climb element
  • The tunnel element
  • Locating the correct tube containing a live Rat
  • Instinct, Novice, Open, Senior, & Master level training is available as you and your dog progress.

These skills in particular will be worked on at length during class in order to prepare you and your dog for all levels offered at a Barn Hunt Association sanctioned trial. This includes helping the handler learn to “read” their dog so they can differentiate between a live Rat in a PVC tube, from a tube filled with used litter or tube that is a completely empty.

Please bring a hungry dog to class along with small sized soft treats. Bring fresh water and a bowl for your dog, along with an x-pen or crate for your dog. If not already on file, you must bring an updated copy of your shot records.
