Junior Handler Program
Junior Handler Program
At Twin Oaks Dog Club and Canine Extreme we have a wonderful Junior handlers program. We train in all aspects of dog sport from basic obedience to high level of sport. Our juniors train in a group setting under the guidance of head trainer Raul Hernandez.
We currently have kids that are competing in everything from local 4H clubs, AKC: Rally, Obedience & Showmanship as well as FCI/SV Confirmation and IGP. Our juniors receive full support wether their competing a small local show or National Sieger event.
We train year round and kids are welcome to start at any time of the year. Please see our training schedule (Schedule) for information on dates and times.
