Agility is an active, thinking sport that combines speed, excitement, and teamwork.
It's a great way to:
- spend some fun time with your dog
- build on your relationship with your dog
- build the confidence of a not-so-confident dog
- help burn off some of your best friend's extra mental and physical energy
Agility is for:
- purebreds and All Americans, show dogs and family pets
- almost any physically and mentally sound dog
- any handler (wheelchair included) who enjoys doing activities with their dog
- those teams interested in just having fun as well as those who may wish to compete
We teach using positive, motivational techniques, emphasizing the safety of your canine teammate first and foremost. Our commitment to each dog is to have a fun and positive experience while attending our classes.
THE FACILITY
Agility classes are held at an indoor riding arena in Raymond, New Hampshire. Directions will be sent upon enrollment.

COURSES
This 6-week course will be your team's introduction to Agility. This is where you will learn the basics of Agility attitude, motivation, handling, and obstacle performance. By the end of this course, the class may be introduced to the following basic Agility obstacles – jumps, tire, dog walk, A-frame, see-saw, weave poles, table, pipe tunnel, and collapsed tunnel depending upon each dog's ability. You will be learning on equipment built to competition specification as well as training equipment designed to help your dog build confidence.
