Agility & Jumping Trials

The purpose of the Agility Test is to test the ability of a dog to accomplish a series of obstacles whilst under the control of a handler.  A prescribed number of qualifying scores must be obtained in order to achieve one of the 4 Agility and Jumping titles available.

The club has commenced training for Agility games classes.

The club has created an Agility Sub-Committee to deal with Agility & Jumping matters.
