I have been watching the agility course for some time now and i have a dog of a mix breed that shows amazing energy. I hope it goes well. Thanks for the video.
Does a dogs age matter? I'm only 13 but I really think my dog loki has a lot of potential. The only problem is by the time I'm 18 she would be a senior dog
My girl already managed the tire, the dogwalk and the A frame. She is having a difficulty time with the tunel, and the seesaw. We are yet to try the other obstacles. Great video!
For anyone reading this: Activities like this are more than just fun party tricks. They build focus, impulse control, and the desire to follow the handler and a lure. They're also engaging, which raises our value around distractions. Keep up the good work, and they'll get it! You're doing great! 🐶❤️
I saw a top judge send his border collie round an agility course while standing beside the first obstacle. Just giving voice commands. Over, left, right, table, He used the command "go" ahead of the seesaw, a-frame. The dog knew how to get all the touch points. I've not seen anyone else with that skill. I certainly can't do it, except, for example, a sequence of jumps in a row.
My rescue sheltie and I have done beginners and she loves it…so much that she never stops barking when in her crate. I have covered it, put treats in the crate, use a snuffle mat, but when she hears the commotion while waiting her turn, she cant contain herself. I am not new to agility or shelties. I’ve had 12 shelties through the years, and 4 have had agility training. How can I quiet her down?
My dog is incredibly fast, agile, and flexible. The only one that I'm worried about is me and my own stamina, trying to catch up to her I also worry about losing track of the course order, even though it's numbered.
He forgot to mention the (probably) the most important rule, that the dog MUST be at least a year old if your thinking about doing agility. It interferes with their growing joints. But the weave poles, A frame, see-saw and teeter should be fine
Good stuff! We just got a German Shephard puppy that seems to love to go in and out of places. With my past experience as an engineer, I would like to design some obstacles. I do have a suggestion though. For the "jumping" apparatuses, instead of using something that a bar has to sit on, why not use magnets at the ends of the poles and have a metal strip on the uprights? That way a dog can land straight down on the bar and it will still fall… also, you can adjust the height by much smaller increments if needed. something to think about. Let me know if you want me to design one.

The moment I saw my puppy run full speed and saw his form and athleticism, I KNEW I had to start training him in agility foundations.

I've wanted to train a dog for it. I'm too old now

New subscriber! My pup and I are so excited to start this journey!
Can you do it with a senior dog ? Nearly 9-year old Amstaff ?

If i set up an agility course at home (i have a very large yard), will my dog get bored of it?
The lady doth protest too much, me thinks
I'd love to do this with my next dog!

Taren Edgerton. Hansy.
"Protest" soooooooooooooooo CRINGE!
I was getting my dogs into agility, it's gonna take a while as I have quite a few dogs!
How young can you register with the local kennel club? And is it 15 months of age before they can start for agility competition?

im in Virginia Beach does anyone know where I can start doing agility
Hey YT people! That MUSIC IS TOO LOUD!!! REMIX IT QUIETER! PLEASE!!!
I'm worried my standard poodle will start jumping our backyard fence if I teach her to jump over obstacles. She can already leap incredibly high.

Great tip we were given when doing agility is to give a joint supplement to prevent joint damage, we use Antinol, and mine increased his speed!
sometimes my dog doesnt pull on the leash too much.
