Agility
This fun, fast paced obstacle course sport is hosted at the indoor facility for year-round agility fun no matter the weather!
Intro to Agility Class
This class is perfect for beginners to the sport. In this class you will learn important handler skills, introduce the obstacles to your dog and build confidence with them, and learn how to navigate a course!
You don’t have to be looking to compete in order to have fun in this class. This is a great class for getting your dog plenty of exercise and building focus skills!
Agility Club
For those who’ve completed Intro to Agility (or equivalent). This club offers new courses every week for you and your dog to navigate!
-
Basic training skills, marker training, and focus are important for attending this class. If your dog needs help with this, Level 1 Manners class or private training can be a great place to start!
Dog participating should not have any current or ongoing injuries that may be worsened by agility activities. If you are unsure if your dog should participate, please consult with your veterinarian before enrolling.
-
Agility is held at the Canine Speak facility at 2748 N Garfield Rd, Suite 16, Traverse City, MI 49686
The location is an approximately 1,500 sqft space with non-slip flooring.
-
Classes are kept small with 3-4 dogs with handlers in each class to provide maximum space and individual attention where needed.
-
You do not have to take Intro to Agility if you and your dog have agility experience. For those who are confident with their own handler skills and dog’s comfort level with agility obstacles, Agility Club can be a great choice. Some have done this work at home or taken a class with another trainer.
If you have 1-2 obstacles you are not sure about with your dog, please reach out to see if we can accommodate before signing up.
