Agility Show n Go March 21st 2 Woodley Park

No Gravatar

Fun Run Agility is having a show n go

The sport of dog agility is very exciting.  Even if you only want to participate for fun and not aim for competition, both you and your dog need variety in training.   Dogs can react differently when surrounded by lots of activity.  That’s why a sho’n'go is essential in providing you and your partner the invaluable opportunity to run in a setting other than your regular class or backyard.  So many times we’ve heard people say at a show (after their dog has flown off the teeter or refused the tire)  ”Well, he does that perfectly in class”.

A sho’n'go ( or fun match) allows a handler and dog to experience a trial setting, without the stress associated with serious competition.   We have excellent equipment and our aim is to provide:

A friendly and relaxed learning environment

Outstanding training for beginners

An opportunity for experienced dog handlers to work their dogs

A great place for older, retired agility dogs to play on equipment and feel great about themselves

SO, COME TO OUR NEXT EVENT AND HAVE A GOOD TIME!
