When a team has developed modest skills on all the equipment and a good understanding of handling concepts, they are ready for an advanced class.

We have several classes of this level grouped according to experience and ability. Each class is sub divided into two working groups. Each group has an opportunity to work through a sequence on each side of the agility arena working through the challenges presented before moving to the other area. This allows the opportunity to practice course memorization skills as well as offering many different training challenges in each class. teaching the dogs to sustain their focus and ability for an entire course.

Emphasis in all programs is put on the development of the dog handler relationship and a camaraderie amongst participants.

If you have had experience doing agility at another school please let us know. It might take some time to find out where you and your dog will fit in our agility training programs.

At All About Dogs we host regular agility fun matches all year round. Fun matches are an excellent way to get you and your dog acclimatized to all aspects of agility competitions. At each match there are four different courses set up at various skill levels. Handlers are given an opportunity to memorize the course and prepare their handling strategies.

Each dog and handler team is given a 2 two-minute time period to complete the course and train in the ring. Toys and food rewards are permitted. This is a great way to add in a little extra agility play time for you and your dog!

Please check our schedule regularly for upcoming fun match dates.
