Agility

Dog agility is a fast-paced and exciting sport where dogs and their handlers work as a team to navigate a timed obstacle course. Dogs run, jump, climb, and weave through a variety of obstacles while responding to their handler’s cues, building trust, communication, and confidence along the way.

Agility helps strengthen off-leash skills, improves focus and body awareness, and reinforces solid foundation manners—all while having a lot of fun. Suitable for dogs of many ages and experience levels, agility provides both physical exercise and mental enrichment, making it a rewarding activity for dogs who love to move and learn with their person.
