Agility
Agility is a fun sport that can help build your dog’s confidence as well as work on their listening skills. You and your dog will work as a team to learn how to perform each individual piece of equipment and learn how to put them together as a course. It is a great opportunity to strengthen the bond between you and your dog. Beginner level obedience skills are needed to learn agility.

Rally

You and your dog will learn how to perform each sign to complete the course. To begin Rally class, a basic obedience level is required with the skills of sit, down, stay, come, and walking nicely on a leash already achieved.
