Agility

It’s an obstacle course where your pooch will barrel through tunnels, fly over jumps, scale dogwalks and wind their way through weave poles. It’s fun for dogs and even more fun for owners and spectators. It is one of the fastest-growing dog sports in the USA!  Dogs are judged on speed and accuracy. They have to complete the course in an allotted time frame, but most important, they have to do it by completing each obstacle correctly and in the right order. This might seem like work but to a dog this is FUN!  All healthy dogs can do agility—ranging from the very small to the very tall. Dogs are divided by height in order to make the competition equal among the different sizes of dogs. It’s an even playing field… and there’s lots of playing!  How to Get Started?  Your dog needs basic obedience training before they start agility. Also, dogs’ growth plates should be closed before they start jumping, weaving and performing full-height obstacles. If you have a puppy or young dog, get your veterinarian’s advice before starting agility training.
