AGILITY

*Agility is the ultimate game for you and your dog. In agility, a dog demonstrates their agile nature and versatility by following cues from the handler through a timed obstacle course. The course has jumps, tunnels, weave poles, and other obstacles. Agility strengthens the bond between dogs and handlers, it is extremely fun, and it provides vigorous exercise for both!

The classes at W.A.G.S are for all levels. Beginners to Competitive.

Instuctor
Kathy Darmstadt

I began taking agility classes from Sharon when she had her school in Canton. I started, as most people do, as a way to have fun and build confidence in my 7 month old lab rescue, Bucky. I was hooked from the beginning and have been taking classes, going to seminars and competing ever since. Bucky is retired now, but between my mom and I we compete with our Vizsla's Asti, Seneca, Capri, Treska, and the up and coming Jimmi and Josh. Now 12 years later I am honored to be teaching agility at WAGS. I want to share my enthusiasm and of agility to the students at WAGS.
