eight. Although seemingly simple, the figure-eight routines should be an
important part of any handler's warm-up repertoire. Not only do the
figure-eight routines offer a way for warming up the dog physically and
mentally, but they also offer a way to get the handler and the dog working
together as a team. D Pati Hatfield Mah and Stuart Mah have been highly
regarded agility competitors and instructors for many years. They have
both represented the U.S. in international competition on multiple
occasions and have won multiple national championships with their dogs.
Their training programs focus on the skills that both the handler and dog
need to do quality agility. The emphasis is not on just getting through a
sequence, but rather the way in which it is accomplished. Pati and Stuart
focus on the skills necessary to handle proactively rather than resorting
to a crisis management approach. Their students have attained the highest
titles in the various agility organizations. You can reach Pati and Stuart
