This DVD contains demonstrations of Linda Mecklenburg and one of her dogs performing common sequences in agility as described in Chapter 6 of her highly acclaimed agility handling book, Developing Handling Skills. The sequences demonstrated closely parallel those in the book and should be viewed as a supplement to the text and diagrams. Each sequence contains a reference to the figure it corresponds to in Developing Handling Skills. For maximum benefit, the video should be viewed in conjunction with the book.
