Agility classes (Level 1 & 2)

Contact us

Dog agility is a sport where handlers guide their dogs through a timed obstacle course, emphasizing teamwork, communication, and canine athleticism, with obstacles like jumps, tunnels, and weave poles. 

What it is:

Dog agility is a sport where a handler directs their dog through a pre-set obstacle course, aiming for speed and accuracy. 

  • The Course:

    Agility courses typically include a variety of obstacles, such as:

    • Jumps: Dogs leap over hurdles of varying heights. 

    • Tunnels: Dogs run through tunnels, often curved to make it harder to see the exit. 

    • Weave Poles: Dogs weave through a series of poles, entering to the right of the first pole and weaving through each of the others. 

    • A-frame: Dogs must run up one side, across the top, and down the other side, touching the "contact zone" at the bottom of the board as they exit. 

    • Seesaw: Dogs must walk across the seesaw, balancing on the end, and then slide down the other side. 

    • Dog Walk: Similar to an A-frame, but with a horizontal plank in the middle. 

    • Pause Table: Dogs must stop on a table for a set amount of time. 

  • How it works:

    • Dogs run off-leash and are guided by their handler's voice commands and body language. 

    • Handlers cannot touch the dog or the obstacles. 

    • The goal is to complete the course quickly and accurately, with penalties for mistakes or knocking down obstacles. 

  • Benefits:

    • Physical and Mental Stimulation: Agility training provides dogs with a great workout, both physically and mentally. 

    • Bonding: It strengthens the bond between the dog and handler through teamwork and communication. 

    • Socialization: Agility training can help dogs socialize with other dogs and people in a positive environment. 

  • Getting Started:

    • Start with basic obedience: Ensure your dog has good foundation skills like recall, loose-leash walking, and basic commands. 

    • Start with the basics: Begin with simple obstacles and gradually increase the difficulty as your dog progresses. 

    • Make it fun: Agility training should be enjoyable for both you and your dog.
