Syndi Wilhelm

 

Syndi has been training and teaching dog agility for many years.  She started training her Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier in agility in January of 2006 because she was a fearful, insecure dog and she had heard that agility training would help build her confidence.  They both had fun and progressed into competing.  Evey has earned Agility, Rally-Obedience and Competition Obedience titles.  In 2008 Syndi acquired her Giant Schnauzer, Rainier.  He is a completely different dog and requires completely different style of handling and techniques from Evey.  He has earned multiple Conformation Champion titles, Rally-Obedience and Agility titles.  She currently teaches Equipment, a class designed to give the handler/dog teams a good foundation towards the correct performance of each individual agility obstacle and The ABC's of Handling, which is designed to give the handler practice using front and rear crosses, 270's, leadout pivots, as well as other valuable handling techniques with a small setup that can be  used in small spaces.  See all three of them in action by viewing their pictures below.
