  Agility classes for fun or for competition

Agility is an increasing popular sport and a great way to increase the bond with your dog.  Learn in a fun and positive environment: there are no "corrections" in Agility.

Many people see Agility on television - dogs jumping hurdles, dashing through tunnels, running across balance beams, and seemingly flying through weave poles - and then wonder if their dogs could do the same.  Most dogs LOVE Agility: it is self rewarding.  Your dog may not be as fast as that Border Collie on television, but your dog can have as much fun!

Instructor Sally Keats has been training her own dogs and teaching others for over ten years, for both fun and competition.  Most of our students participate because it is fun, but a few students have been trialing locally and on the Mainland.  You are welcome to come out and watch our classes and see what it is all about.

Our Training Field is a fenced arena with wood chip footing.  Good footing is important as it cushions the dog's legs and joints, as well as providing enough traction.

We offer several levels of classes, as well as private, one-on-one lessons.

Beginner:
Teaches each obstacle individually, so you learn to navigate it safely.  Short courses and series of obstacles are introduced.  Puppies are welcome in this class, but jumping and other jarring exercise will be limited.

Level One:
Courses become more difficult, with more emphasis on handling techniques.

Level Two:
For those who want to compete or to start on advanced courses.

Drop-in Classes:
Once you have completed Level One, you are welcome to join our drop-in classes.

Private Lessons:
Want to work on a specific obstacle?  Need help to improve your handling skills?  Group classes don't fit your schedule?  Have more than one dog you'd like to run through the course?  Ask about a lesson for just you and your dog(s).

Renting the Training Field and Equipment:
For a modest fee you can practice on your own. You must have Agility experience or have taken our classes and be approved by Tracy or Sally, as dogs' safety is our main concern.

Costs:
Please see our printable price list for current rates.

Please contact Sally at (250) 704-9215 to find out when the next class is starting or the current schedule should you like to come out and watch.
