Agility: the Ultimate of Dog Sports

A team sport where you are in charge of the strategy and your dog is responsible for the athleticism. Dogs leap over hurdles, power through tunnels, zip through a slalom of upright poles and scale ramps of different sizes. The aim is to find the balance between the control of the dog and the speed of the performance. Scoring is based on faults, similar to equestrian show jumping. A handler who directs their dog to complete the obstacles correctly within the set time will earn a Clear Round. You can read about results of WAAG members at recent trials. Handlers and Dogs earn titles when they achieve a set number of clear rounds at trials. You can see the titles acheived by dogs belonging to WAAG members and meet the WAAG dogs in the photos on this page. Or visit ADAA website to learn more about ADAA agility.
