agility courses

Canine obstacle circuits

Agility courses are obstacle courses designed for dogs to navigate at speed, typically featuring jumps, tunnels, weave poles, and seesaws.

The handler directs the dog through the sequence without touching them.

Agility is a competitive sport with timed runs and faults for errors: She trains her border collie on agility courses three times a week.
