- New Bedford, MA
One program. Many ways to play. We focus on happy teams first. Skills grow from there. You can stay in the fun lane, build basics, raise a puppy the right way, or get ready for trials. It all fits together. Move at your pace and mix paths as you go.
Each session runs 6 weeks with one class per week. Agility is a continuing class, and each cycle builds on what you learned in the previous session so progress stays steady.
Fun comes first here. We keep things friendly, low pressure, and full of small wins. You and your dog learn simple skills, laugh a lot, and enjoy time together. Sessions use short reps, clear cues, and easy paths. If you want to stay in this lane forever, great. If you feel ready for more later, we will help you take the next step.
Beginner Agility is the base of our program. We teach safe jumps, tunnels, and simple handling. You practice start lines, turns, and focus in small steps. These basics support everything else. They make fun sessions smoother and give you the tools to grow when you want to.
Puppy Agility is gentle and short. We use low setups, short tunnels, and soft lines that protect growing bodies. Pups learn to think, follow, and feel brave on new things. These early habits become the strong foundation you will use for life, whether you train for fun or aim higher later.
Competition agility is when you go to a trial and run a set course for time and accuracy. The goal is a clean run with no faults like a dropped bar or a missed contact. You learn to walk the course, set a solid start line, and reward after the finish. Key skills are weaves, contacts, tight turns, and steady focus. You earn titles by getting qualifying scores. Trials can feel busy, so we practice ring habits, short warm ups, and calm waiting. Some teams chase ribbons. Others try one event just to see what it is like. It should still feel fun for you and your dog.
