Agility
Agility is a sport that appeals to both young people and to senior citizens. It has great
spectator appeal.
Agility is designed to demonstrate a dog's willingness to work with its handler in a variety
of situations. It is an athletic event that requires conditioning, concentration, training and
teamwork. In agility, a dog demonstrates his/her agile nature and versatility by following
cues from the handler through a timed obstacle course. The course has jumps, tunnels,
weave poles, and other obstacles.
Whether your dog is young or old, large or small, pedigreed or mixed breed, Agility is a
sport you and your dog can enjoy together. Agility strengthens the bond between dogs
and handlers, is fun, and provides vigorous exercise for both.
Agility is the ultimate game for you and your dog.
