      <image:title>Blog | Dog Sport Training Tips and Guides - How to Prepare for a Dog Training Session - 3. Bring a lot of treats at different value levels to class!</image:title>

      <image:caption>Those are just a few ways to make the challenge easier, but depending on the sequence there may be other options. Try to see things from your dog’s perspective, and learn to identify what questions your dog has.
