The sport of agility for dogs first began in 1978 as entertainment between events at a dog show in England. It became so popular for dogs and their humans in the United States that an association was created in 1986 to support it, called the United States Dog Agility Association. Other associations have since popped up and competitions have been established that allow prizes to be given to the best of the best.

Agility training for dogs is basically an obstacle course for dogs. The course consists of contact obstacles, jumps, tunnels and chutes, and weave poles. The handler and dog work together to get through the course as quickly as possible without missing or knocking an obstacle down.

Agility training is fun to do in your own backyard with homemade equipment or you can go to dog parks around the U.S. that have courses already set up for you and your dog to use.
