Backyard Agility
Course Maps
Backyard-sized sequences are a great way
to practice applying the OneMind Dogs
handling techniques once
you have learned them!

If you have not done any of the suggested

techniques before, please first learn the
technique on one jump using our Handling
Techniques program, before applying it in a
sequence. Learning the techniques and the
lines they create in detail first will ensure
you and your dog can focus on having fun
with these sequences rather than feeling
frustrated or overwhelmed.

If you need help with the techniques,

OneMind Dogs Premium members can
send training videos to our coaching team
at any time for feedback and suggestions,
it’s like having your own personal coach!

Happy training!

and focus on re-connecting if you want
to avoid that tunnel suck!)
V-set on #5 if needed.
Send to blind tunnel entry #6 and get moving to do a Blind Cross before #7.
Lateral push to a Front Cross on #8 – aim to be positioned between
jump #7 and #9 when doing the Front Cross to give you time to do a
Japanese on #9.
You can also try a False Turn on #8-9.
