Why Dog Agility?

Dog agility training has so many benefits – not only is it great exercise for you and your dog, but it helps develop your dogs focus, increases confidence, and helps with impulse control. Most importantly you and your dog will learn to communicate with each other and problem solve obstacles and tasks.

Dog Agility classes in Bend

Foundation I Dog Agility

Foundation is for puppies and adult dogs just getting their start in the game. In foundation I, handlers are taught training techniques to improve timing, reinforcement delivery, and how to set clear criteria. The dogs learn how to learn, problem-solve, and how to focus and engage with their handlers through play, reward-based training, and making choices that encourage connection.

Foundation II Dog Agility

Continuing to build on what was taught in Foundation I, we continue to improve reinforcement delivery, learn how to add duration, work under distractions, and generalize behaviors. The tricks introduced in Foundation I will continue to progress and we will continue to build engagement and focus. In Foundation II, we really start to help our dogs develop a verbal understanding of cues and we introduce flatwork for agility.
