We look forward to receiving dog treats, dog toys, agility items, personal items, T-shirts, socks,
gift cards etc.. You can leave these things in a marked bag in the club office or bring them to the
trial.
Thank you

Member of DDTC Agility Trial Committee
AKC STAR Puppy Kindergarten (KPT) is for puppies 2-6 months of age. Topics such as housebreaking, biting,
grooming and destructive behavior are discussed. Puppies learn to socialize with other dogs and people, and
are introduced to basic obedience. Puppies must attend all classes and pass the AKC S.T.A.R. Puppy test at
the end of the course to be eligible for enrollment in the STAR Puppy Program.
Beginning Basic is offered for dogs 7 months and older. Owners are taught how to teach their dogs the basic
obedience commands: SIT, DOWN, STAND, COME and HEEL. Proper dog care is also taught.
Fundamental Obedience - This class is similar to the other Beginning Basic courses in expected outcomes of
sit, down, stand, heeling, recalls and sit and down stays. The main difference is in the delivery of these
skills. While we use the traditional delivery systems of the other classes of basic obedience we add rally and
agility instruction to reinforce the teaching of the skills.
This course is a good overview of some of the other classes the club offers that you may want to try once your
“graduation” requirements have been met.
Advanced Basic is a continuation of what the dogs began to learn in Beginning Basic, so that the dog will be
very solid on the fundamentals of obedience commands. (Dogs must complete Adv Basic before being
evaluated for Agility classes.)
Beginning Novice Titling- (Completion of Adv Basic, Rally ADV/EXC, or instructor’s approval is needed) The next class level after Advanced Basic. Training is geared more toward Competitive Novice Obedience but
all dogs can benefit from a gradual intro to off-leash training. Heeling patterns, stand for exam, recalls and
stationeries are practiced. Beginner Novice titling is an AKC optional titling class which is offered at DDTC
obedience trials.
Advanced Novice, Open and Utility classes are available for the person who wishes to go into or is interested
in learning more about competitive obedience.
Competitive Obedience 1 – For competitive handlers who plan to show. This class is on the Basic Level and
gets your dog started with correct heeling positioning, attention and everything that is needed to prepare for
a competitive career.
Competitive Obedience 3 (Ring Prep) - For competitive handlers who are close to or actively showing. This
class addresses individual training issues and prepares you for the ring.
Freestyle Tricks- IS FUN! This class helps To Develop & Enhance the Bond between You & Your Dog through
Improving Attention and Increasing Focus. Fun tricks will be taught that not only makes obedience enjoyable
and relaxing but is entertaining as well.
Rally Novice (Passing Basic Class is required or approval from the instructor) (Student can only be in one Part
during a training session and it is suggested he/she continues with the same instructor)
Part 1- Fundamentals of Rally. The Novice signs are taught as well as proper heeling, sits, etc.
Part 2- Coursework. This is geared more toward combining the signs and performing an actual Rally course.
Instructors will also go over how a Rally trial works and how to enter. Students will be able to show in Rally
Novice at AKC events after passing this class and be ready for basic off leash work.
Rally ADV/EXC- Advanced and Excellent signs and skills are taught as well as improving on the previously
taught signs. Continuation at this level is a great way to keep your dog in condition for Rally competition.
Rally Course (student must be in or completed Rally ADV/EXC)- A rally course is setup and students go
through the course that features all 3 levels. Combining this and the Rally ADV/EXC class allows the teacher to
work on individual signs that are featured in the course and that the student is having difficulty with.
Dauphin Dog Training Club is presenting a seminar on the
New Obedience Regulations effective as of December 2015.
Phyllis Broderick, AKC Judge will discuss the new procedures and changes to the
current procedures.
Phyllis started obedience in 1976 with her first beagle who went on to become Banjo Travelor, UD,
Canadian CDX. She has trained another 15” Beagle to her American and Canadian Championships and
American and Canadian CDX. She has also shown beagles in breed in Canada earning many
Championships. She also showed a Field Spaniel to her CD.
She has shown 6 English Springer Spaniels to various titles, many HIT, 1 OTCH, 5 UD titles, 2 UDX
titles, 2 RAE titles, 3 RE titles, etc., She has also put an AM & CAN CH on one of her springers.
Three of her springers have agility titles. Her current springer has 2 UD legs and 8 RAE legs.
She has been an AKC judge since 1991, judging in obedience and rally.
She has also taught obedience for various NJ and PA obedience clubs. She taught obedience in her
own school on Staten Island.
