Agility Class Levels
Agility I — Foundations & Safety
Agility I introduces dogs and handlers to core agility concepts with a strong emphasis on obstacle safety, confidence, and reinforcement fundamentals. Dogs learn how to approach, perform, and exit individual obstacles correctly while handlers build clear communication, reward timing, and effective reinforcement placement. Focus is placed on calm starts, controlled movement, and understanding how body position and motion influence your dog’s choices.
Agility II — Sequences & Handling Skills
Agility II builds on foundation skills by introducing short obstacle sequences and essential handler footwork maneuvers used to efficiently guide dogs through more complex setups. Teams learn how to support smoother lines, better angles of approach, and more effective transitions between obstacles while improving overall performance, speed, timing, and flow.
