Caring, professional training for dogs and their people.....
2023 Update: Classes are held outdoors April through October. Private agility lessons are available weather permitting. See our FaceBook Page for class updates.
Agility is an exciting sport that you and your dog can participate in together. A dog agility course consists of jumps, tunnels, ramps, a see-saw, and slalom poles the dog weaves through. To be successful, your dog must complete the obstacles quickly, safely, and in the correct order. The handler's job is to run along side indicating the sequence of obstacles.
There are lots of benefits to doing agility with your dog: It's great exercise plus an opportunity to learn something new together, build your dog's confidence, and practice self control in exciting situations. Most of all, it's just plain fun!
You may choose to do agility just for the fun of it or to prepare for competition. Many handlers start agility with no intention of competing, but then the agility bug bites and they are hooked! For this reason, classes will be taught so that all teams have a solid foundation for competition.
This class is designed for dogs and handlers who are new to agility. Join us and discover what all the fun is about! We will introduce obstacle skills as well as building your dog's desire to work and play with you.
Topics covered:
This class can and should be repeated until course goals are met. If you are doing agility for the fun and exercise, you are welcome to stay at this level.
