FAQ: Dog Agility Training

Do dogs enjoy agility?
Most dogs will love the experience. If, however, you think your dog does not enjoy it, the rewards will not be enough to continue as your dog will be unlikely to become very good, or indeed to appeal to judges.

Do competing dogs require a special diet?
All dogs should have a well balanced diet. The most important thing is to keep your dog well exercised and not to allow him or her to become overweight. Dogs should only ever be fed after training and never before.

What are the most important points to train for?
Your control over the dog is of great importance. If a dog can react instantly to your commands then it is a good candidate for training. Above all, agility training should be fun for both dog and owner and should be entertaining for onlookers.
