What is dog agility? Dog agility is a sport in which a handler directs a dog through an obstacle course in a race for both time and accuracy. The concept of Dog Agility began in 1977 when a dog training demonstration was invented as a crowd pleaser for the 1978 Crufts Dog Show. Two teams of four dogs competed against each other with such success that the sport of dog agility was born. Invented in the UK, it soon spread across the world and now there are world Championship competitions. The aims of dog agility are not dissimilar to the aims of show jumping - the completion of all the obstacles without fault in the shortest time possible.
