Gameness, Relationship, Control:
GRC is an amazing dog sport that focuses on allowing a dog to express their drives, while also demonstrating control through building a strong relationship with your canine counterpart.

Whether you’re preparing for the trial field- in ANY sport, or you just want to be able to live a more harmonious life with your dog, GRC can give you the skills and community to help achieve your goals.

-If you’ve never had the pleasure of attending a Jay Jack seminar, this is for you!

-If you’ve been to Jay’s “Play As The Way” or some of his other seminars, this is for you!

-Never heard of GRC? Just getting into GRC or the dog sport world in general? This is for you!

-You and your dog already compete in GRC, agility, dock diving, disc or other sports, this is for you!  These skills can truly translate anywhere and in every life situation.

-You're looking for a way to strengthen your relationship and communication with your pet dog, THIS IS FOR YOU! 

Over these two days we will discuss and demonstrate:

- The (SR)Social Responsibility Test- You must pass this test with a minimum score of 70 points (out of 100) to be able to enter in any drive sport competitions that GRC offers.  But learning the (SR) Social Responsibility skills are essentially great life skills to have, whether you compete in any sports or not.  They are true asset for anyone living life with dogs. 

- Drive sports- Spring Pole, Mill Race, Weight Pull, and Wall Climb.  

We will be demonstrating aspects of the SR test and drive sports with dog's who are brand new to the concepts to show the beginning stages of training, as well as fully trained dogs to show the end goal.

With this seminar, we are trying a different format than ones prior. Instead of having select working spots, Jay will be pulling from the crowd as needed to demonstrate the topic of discussion. There is no price difference between auditing and working spots, we are charging a flat rate of $300(whata' steal!) We are choosing this format so that we're able to touch on all aspects of the sport and how it translates into real life. If you are interested in your dog potentially being chosen for a demonstration, let us know below!

After these two wonderful days of learning, we are hosting GRC North East Nationals Saturday 08/29 & Sunday 08/30. Be sure to sign up and test out your new skills! We also welcome spectators!!

We will begin at 9:00am and wrap up at 5:00pm both Thursday and Friday.

Venue Details & Rules:
PAWS consists of over 30 acres of maintained fields and marked wooded trails. There are 3 lightly fenced areas, two behind a pole barn and one enrichment garden. There is a small training building and a bathroom on premises (we will also have porta-potties).  We welcome everyone to enjoy the space, but please keep your dogs leashed, clean up after them and respect others, their dogs and the property.

Parking will be guided as you arrive, so please be aware of that assistance. 

Car crating is highly encouraged. If anyone needs to crate inside the building, it can be arranged but you need to supply your own crate and the dog must be able to crate safely and quietly. You must let us know in advance if you need special arrangements considered.

Weather in Upstate New York is usually kind and beautiful in late August but please come prepared with whatever you think you will need. Ez-up tents, aluminets and fans to keep yourself and dogs comfortable. Bug spray and back up clothing in case you get too cold or hot. BRING YOUR OWN CHAIR!!

Have fun and be kind!!! We look forward to seeing you all. It's going to be a great seminar.

Please reach out with any questions or concerns.

Lunch, snacks and beverages will be provided. If you have any strict dietary needs, please play it safe and bring your own food. We try our best to accommodate everyone but cannot guarantee anything. Don't forget to bring water, snacks and toys for your dogs.
