agility course

Timed obstacle circuit

An agility course is an obstacle course designed for dogs to navigate at speed, typically featuring jumps, tunnels, weave poles, and seesaws.

Handlers direct their dogs through the course, and competitions judge both time and accuracy: Her border collie flies through the agility course.

The term occasionally extends to similar courses for humans or other animals.
