Why Your Training Feels Solid in
Practice—but Falls Apart in Competition
If you’re a dedicated agility handler, you already know this feeling.
Your dog looks brilliant in training.
Sequences feel smooth. Skills seem reliable.
Then you walk into the ring—and suddenly everything changes.
It’s not that your dog forgot the work.
And it’s not that you didn’t practice enough.
What’s actually happening is this: your training doesn’t yet transfer under pressure.
You've probably tried:
âś“ Online videos
âś“ Â Seminars and workshops
âś“ Private lessons
âś“ More repetitions that you can count
And still you're asking: "What am I missing?"
Here’s the truth most handlers never hear:
Consistency doesn’t come from doing more. It comes from training with clarity.
Your dog isn’t being stubborn.
They’re responding to unclear expectations.
And without clear expectations, performance will always be inconsistent—especially in competition.
If nothing changes, you’ll likely keep seeing the same pattern:
→ Skills that look great in practice but unravel in trials
→ A dog who seems unsure when pressure rises
→ You questioning decisions mid-run instead of trusting them
Over time, that uncertainty chips away at confidence—for both of you.
Not because you lack talent.
But because clarity hasn’t been fully built yet.
Here’s the good news:
Â
This isn’t a motivation problem.
And it’s not about trying harder.
It’s a thinking and training structure problem—and that can be fixed.
When expectations are clear, dogs repeat behaviors confidently.
When handlers understand exactly what they’re reinforcing, consistency becomes inevitable.
That’s where the Spot On approach comes in.
Train Once. Show Up Anywhere.
Â
Most agility programs teach skills in isolation.
But competition doesn’t test isolated skills—it tests understanding under pressure.
You can’t out-practice confusion.
And more reps without clarity only reinforce inconsistency.
The Spot On Framework is designed to fix that.
Developed over 25+ years of judging and coaching—and informed by analysis of over 500,000 competition runs—this system teaches handlers how to:
Define clear expectations for their dog
Make confident training and handling decisions
Build performance that holds up in new environments
This isn’t about collecting more drills.
It’s about building a system that connects training to competition.
Once handlers understand what actually matters—and what their dog is truly being rewarded for—everything changes.
Calmer runs.
Clearer decisions.
Consistent results.
You can introduce it here, one sentence only:
In training terms, that clarity is called criteria—but what matters most is this: when expectations are clear, dogs perform with confidence anywhere.
Now you sound like the expert, not the lecturer.
If you’re ready to stop guessing and start building true consistency with your dog, you’re in the right place.
You didn’t need more emotion.
You needed more precision.
