Linda Mecklenburg has been participating in dog in agility since 1990. She has competed successfully with multiple dogs both nationally and internationally. Using her
experience with hunter/jumper horses and as a veterinarian, she now specializes in jump training for agility dogs. She has written two books on jumping, Developing
Jumping Skills for Awesome Agility Dogs and Mastering Jumping Skills Volume 1 (Volume 2 coming soon). At a time when most blamed ETOs on poor training or
poor structure, she published the first article that described ETOs in 2010. Linda teaches jump training for agility dogs both online and in private lessons. She is available
for consultations regarding early takeoffs free of charge. You may contact her at awesomepaws@aol.com or visit her website www.awesomepawsagilityacademy.com
