Agility is a fast, fun, athletic sport that will give you and your dog a great way to interact and hone your skills. There’s running, jumping, weaving, tunneling, climbing, and fancy footwork.

 

Whether you take an agility class to eventually participate in the sport or whether you take it for exercise and confidence-building, either way, you and your dog will appreciate learning foundation level skills to keep the game safe and fun.

 

DOG AGILITY— It’s for

     MIXED BREED or PUREBRED DOGS

Train a dog that knows his job and is eager to work with you and you can become a handler who is free to plan course strategies on the spot, knowing what your dog will do with each challenge.

 

The Agility Foundation

classes allow you to train

your dog to focus and be

attentive while other dogs

are moving, playing or

running. Getting these

basics mastered will allow you both to have

a great time learning the agility obstacles.
