Build a Pre-Trials Routine!

Building a Pre-Trials Routine, what do you mean?

Most of us started the journey of picking up a Sport, be a Dog Sports, we all started from the following phases.

The Hobby – an activity that someone does for pleasure when they are not working.

The Amateur - a person who engages in a pursuit, especially a sport, on an unpaid rather than a professional basis.

The Professional - engaged in a specified activity as one's main paid occupation rather than as an amateur.

We started to enjoy the games, love the challenges and eventually, we want to prove a point that we have what it take to be very good at it and we can build a business based on our hobby.

Some of us will lose some money, whereas some of us, lost a lot of money, and this is called a HOBBY. Some of us, make good money such as a Professional.

Today, I am not talking about how to build a Dog Training Business, but rather how to build a Pre-Trials routine if you want to do well in Competition or Trials.
