It's a sport where the dog has to do a series of things -- going over jumps, through tires and tunnels and chutes, over the A-frame and the dogwalk, and the teeter, etc. It's so much fun and a great way for you and your dog to bond, get some exercise, and it can really boost a dog's confidence. Visa wasn't well socialised as a puppy due to an illness, so we're hoping that agility will boost her confidence and make her less shy around strangers. She's beautiful in the show ring, but when the judge looks at her teeth she shies. I'm going to be working alot with her though to overcome this. Agility is a great help.
