Dog agility is a canine sport in which dogs have to navigate through a course that has various types of obstacles, under the direction of a handler. The sport is fun, engaging and helps build confidence and bonding between dogs and handlers.

Agility training uses your dog's natural instincts to run, jump and smoothly navigate their environment. It provides great exercise both mentally and physically, encourages learning and problem solving skills and promotes open communication between canine and human! As the dog relies on your for guidance on the course, they become more obedient and well-behaved off the course. 

Woods has designed an introduction to agility class that is all about Fun!

The fee is $150 for each 5 week session. Cancellations must be made 48 hours in advance in order to receive a refund.
