Dog Agility


History of Dog Agility
During 1977, a group of dog training enthusiasts had a meeting to work out a new dog competition which they had been asked to put on as a demonstration event at Crufts in 1978. The format they came up with would take some of the obstacles from working sheep dog trials, combining it with the concept of show jumping and would require obedience. This new sport was to be called Dog Agility.

The competition is on!

In 1979 it was back again at Crufts only this time it was a competition and not a demonstration. It would be true to say that in the early years the dog agility was an amusing interlude for the audience but now it has grown into a major competition.

Dog Agility at our Events
Housed in it's own arena, demonstrations of dog agility will combine with the opportunity for you to enter trained dogs on the day.
