Introduction
Agility obedience is what we do when
we're not jumping. It's helped us get more control as well as being great fun. Read
the intro to see if you think it might help you. Leg Weaving
We've had some fun doing leg weaving
and figure of eight. There wasn't any music and we aren't very elegant but we enjoyed
ourelves. I've also added a little video clip.
A Sort of Flyball
Here's a lovely
game with a toy and four low jumps. We're not quite flyball
champions.....yet.
Agility Heelwork
Agility heelwork is adapted from
obedience heelwork and it's a great way to get control. It's also a great way to get
knackered as there's a lot of running to do.
Starting
Agility
I was searching on Youtube to see if I could find some really useful video
clips for people who are just starting out in dog agility. The clips
on this page are excellent for anyone who is about to start training and I think
they'll also be interesting and useful to people who are more experienced.

Watch Me
Do you have problems getting your
dog's attention when you get to the ring? I do. Here's a start routine that helps
us.
Basic Dog
Training - The Sit
Before you can
start agility you need a basic level of obedience. This will help you
enormously when you begin your training. We'll start the basic
obedience with the sit. Once you can sit we'll try it with a
dog. Sorry, only joking. I just couldn't resist that one.
Basic Dog
Training - The Recall
This lesson is for puppies and dogs that haven't been trained before.
It covers the basic training in way that is kind and easy.
Good teamwork
This is what we're all aiming for and this video clip from the World
Championships demonstrates what it's like to have a perfect partnership.
