AGILITY

You are the coach, your dog is the athlete! 

Learning the sport of agility involves more than teaching your dog to perform all of the obstacles on an agility course. The human part of the team must learn to communicate with their dog precisely and consistently. Finally, most handlers have to spend a good bit of time helping their dog get comfortable in the stimulating environments that they will encounter both at agility trials and at agility training sessions.

We require that dogs and handlers develop some basic skills in obedience as a foundation to prepare them for agility. 

GCOC's Basic, Intermediate, and Advanced Skills courses are a good starting point. Before taking their first agility class, your dog must have a great recall, good sit and stay performance, and be capable of successfully performing these skills in a variety of different environments.

To see what classes are coming up, go to GCOC's Class Calendar & Registration.
