Q: What is agility training for dogs?

A: If you can imagine a dog, running a
complicated course of tunnels, teeter
totters, jumps, turns, weaves, and more,
that is agility. The dog starts by learning
basic obedience. When the dog is
proficient in obedience basics, he can start
to learn some of the easier moves while
on leash. Later, the leash will be removed
and the dog will work at liberty (off-leash).

I suggest that anyone who is interested
find an agility demonstration or competition
and check it out. It is very similar to watching
a horse jumping a course, but without a rider!

There are different classes for all sizes of
dogs to compete against. Treats and word
commands are allowed to entice the dogs,
but, after you watch the first demonstration,
you will hear the happy barking that tells
you, hey, these dogs are having fun!
