My name is Trisha Stall, and I teach Dog Agility (and Rally Obedience!) in the Capital District Area of New York State.

August 7-8 2008 midweek summer agility camp at Sugar Bush Farm in Stephentown!

February 1, 2008: I just stumbled upon a touching video on agilityvision.com - a tribute done by a 14 year old for her rescue mixed-breed dog, to show people that mixed breeds can excel at agility.  It embodies everything agility is about, and is told so eloquently it brings tears to the eyes (well, mine at least).  Any of us who own mixed breed dogs can totally relate to the video.

I'm now offering my services as trial secretary to clubs and/or individuals - get the details!

Buddy got his C-ATE on January 19, 2008, at the SCOR CPE trial in Garnerville NY!  Ray Wheeler was the judge.  Buddy is the 24th dog in the nation to get the C-ATE, and I'm only the third person to have more than a C-ATE on more than one dog (the other two are from Michigan, the birthplace of CPE; and, of course, my other C-ATE was with Sandy in 2006).  Buddy is 9 years old, and those who know him know he isn't an easy dog - all rescues are "special",  but I wouldn't trade them for the world!!

Sandy made Top Ten for Specialist in 2006 and 2007 (and she only started competing as a Specialist in July 2006), and also managed to crack the Top Ten for lifetime points in 2006, which was really a pleasant surprise!  Go to CPE's Top Ten Page

Class Schedule for May-June 2008 is now available - I'm offering reduced prices and a different lineup to help with the rising gas and travel costs

Crystal, my first agility dog and my inspiration for becoming a dog agility trainer, passed away on July 25th, 2006. 
You can go to her tribute page to read about her life.

Agility Trial premiums are available online for:

  CPE June 14-15 (Note: Sat is full)

Premiums coming soon for July 4 TDAA and July 5-6 USDAA trials, to be held at Altamont Fairgrounds!

I traveled across the country in June 2006 to attend the CPE Nationals in Sacramento CA with Sandy and Buddy.  I have posted a page that's basically a "blog" of my trip.  I will keep it on this site for awhile in case anyone else wants to read about my adventures!

What is Dog Agility, you might ask?

Click on the dog in the tunnel to read all about it!

I believe in positive, no-force methods, and incorporating the use of clicker/operant conditioning training, targeting, and backchaining into everything I do with dogs.  I have attended countless seminars and workshops myself, learning from top trainers from the USA and beyond, and have incorporated "the best of the best" into my own training philosophies.
