Expert Tricks Workshops with Omar Von Muller
The Expert tricks workshops are aimed at advanced trick dogs and experienced handlers.
For maximum benefit, the dogs need to have a good training foundation, good obedience and a good level of physical fitness.
​
Each of the workshops is a free-standing online class.
At each of the workshops, we will be working on a small selection of related tricks.
Omar will give you a clear step by step guidance on how you can start and progress with teaching those tricks, his tips, safety awareness and how to overcome the common challenges.
You are expected to work with your dog independently on those tricks referring to the recording of the session where necessary.
​
Though Omar will provide you with the guidance, you are fully and unconditionally responsible for risk assessment and safety. Do not take part in the programme or teach those skills to your dog if you are not an experienced handler who is willing to take full responsibility for the safety of you, your dog and anyone else who might be involved.
​
This is truly a once in a lifetime opportunity to attend training with one of the World's best trainers from your home!
Workshop 5: Teach your dog to skateboard
Teach your dog to skateboard!
We are not talking about getting onto skateboard and posing, or pushing skateboard for a few steps without much control.
We are talking about the real thing!
At this expert workshop, Omar will share with you his proven step by step approach to teaching dogs to skateboard.
You might think that only some super stunt dogs can learn that and settle for less with your dog. Almost every dog can learn to skateboard properly and Omar taught dozens of different types of dogs to do it well- from Jack Russell, to bulldogs, to collie, terrier, malinois etc. Your dog can learn it too!
Omar will be sharing with you how you can teach your dog to skateboard in full control, with steering and turns, to do it safely and to love it!
​
This is a rare but fantastic skill for your dog to learn to truly stand out! This is also a great way to continue building up your dog's confidence, athletic abilities, trust and balance.

This is one of a kind workshop with one of the world's most experienced dog trainers.
