Agility
at Fido's Farm
Fun and Fitness for Both Ends of the
Leash!
Dog agility is the sport of performing a variety of obstacles
in a timed course. It is great fun and a wonderful opportunity
for bonding the handler-dog relationship, getting exercise,
increasing strength and improving confidence in the shy dog.
Agility provides intellectual stimulation for handler and dog.
This activity also helps the dog mature and learn acceptance
of different environments, other dogs and new people, and gives
the dog a job.
Fido's Farm agility students compete in TDAA, AKC, ASCA,
NADAC, USDAA, UKC and CPE agility events and have earned novice,
open and elite titles.
Prerequisites
for Classes: Healthy
dog, current on immunizations including bordatella. Puppies
welcome.
______________________________________________________________
Pre-Agility: For
dogs/handlers who have little to no agility experience or
who need more foundation work. Puppies welcome. Pre-Agility
content includes tunnels, weave poles, A-frame, teeter, dog
walk, tire, chute, jumps, as well as touch, wrap, sit, stay,
recall, down, here, and out.
Intermediate Handling:
Beginning sequencing for dogs that have completed an agility
series and are able to perform all agility obstacles as well
as the foundation handling skills. Perfect performance is
not expected. Learn course strategies and work longer sequences.
Focus on crosses, turns, distance work, and speed. Taught
by Corinne Berg.

For the competitive dog-handler team, refining performance
