Agility
Dog agility is a dog sport in which a handler directs a dog through an obstacle course in a race for both time and accuracy. Dogs run off leash with no food or toys as incentives, and the handler can’t touch the dog or the obstacles. The handler’s controls are limited to voice, movement, and various body signals. AKC and UKC obstacles will be taught.
The dog and handler will learn a variety of skills based on the Greg Darrett handling system. All AKC and UKC obstacles are taught such as contacts, jumps, tunnels, sway bridge, swing plank and weave poles. We offer 5 different levels of Agility classes.
