Distance Handling Inspiration with Philippa Armstrong
This is a super video made by Paragility competitor and trainer Philippa Armstrong living in the UK.
Philippa developed Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) at 14 and now uses a wheelchair and competes in Dog Agility against running handlers and has developed her own methods of distance handling.
She is also a mentor to other disabled handlers as well as conducting demonstrations and producing videos.
She put this video together with highlights of some excellent distance handling by different handlers and dogs.
Along with a sample of her and her dog running a course from her wheelchair. A real inspiration for anyone inspiring to be a better distance handler.
You won’t want to whine about your challenges in teaching your dog after watching her amazing run.
Be sure to share this inspirational video with everyone.
