If you are looking for something fun and exciting to do with your dog, agility might be for you!

Agility is a fun and exciting sport for dogs and their owners to get fit together. It’s also the fastest growing dog sport and suitable for most breeds from Chihuahuas to Great Danes. In agility training dogs will learn to perform fun obstacle courses. And obstacles used in these courses are jumps, hoops, tunnels, weaving poles, scramble, dog walk, table and see saw.

My agility class is all about having fun with your dog and learning to work together as a team. Therefore the class is suitable for everyone. You can join my agility classes whether you are just looking for something exciting to do with your dog or dreaming about agility trials in the future.

Your agility training starts with Foundation or Beginners class where you will learn the basics of dog agility training and a safe way to perform all the obstacles.

After Beginners Class you can continue your training towards more challenging exercises and dog handling. Because improving your skills takes a lot of practise I will not only train you in your class. I’ll make sure that you go home with exercises you can practise to improve your agility skills without even having any agility equipment.

Agility training includes

• The basics and a safe way of performing agility contact equipment
• Jumping over hurdles and through hoops
• Running through tunnels
• Performing obstacle courses
• Holding position exercises
• Learning to use fitness equipment to build core strength and confidence in balancing exercises
• Improving your dog’s body awareness
• Learning dog handling skills
• Building up speed

If your dog’s under 9 months old the training will focus on equipment introduction, handling techniques and building up confidence.

There are many things that you can practise and learn without putting pressure on your dog’s growing bones and joints.
