Roger Perron

Roger is a student of agility and loves to keep abreast of the newer teaching and training techniques. He firmly believes consistency is the key to successful dog training and enjoys teaching the consistent handling system credited to Greg Derrett. Roger has attended seminars from such skilled agility handlers and teachers as Barb Davis, Guy Blanche, Terry Simons, Greg Derrett, Kim Collins, Mary Zacharatos, and Kathy Keats. He’s also studied clicker training with Sue Ailsby.

Roger specializes in handling classes and gets a big thrill from watching handler and dog begin to develop as a team. His working partner is a German Shepherd called Diva who likes to show the versatility of the breed. She’s pointed in the conformation ring, titled in obedience, agility, and Rally O and has done some tracking as well. After a year off due to injury, she’s back in training for the agility ring.

In his spare time Roger is the facility manager of the Kelowna Dog Sport Centre and can be contacted for facility bookings.
