This was just suggested to me on one of my other questions so I would like to give it a try…but I am a single income family with a bunch of kids, so budget is a problem. I don’t want to rack up hundreds in training costs in a pay by the hour environment. I would like to learn the techniques myself so I can do most of the training.

Where do you go to start agility training or sport training with a pupply, and how old should your puppy be when you begin? Any good resources in West Mighigan/ Grand Rapids area??

does any one know of a good place for agility training in Northern Virginia, classes in the afternoon or evening? They must allow teens to be the handler of the dog! Thanks!

Hi,
I own a 16 month old Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier and I am a kid who’s really interested in agility. We have started agility classes and know the A-Frame, Teeter, Table, Dog Walk, Chute, Tunnel, Jumps, Tire, and are starting off leash and weave poles.

I would really like to compete in trials one day…. any suggestions for training, starting off competing, tips, tricks, etc?

All comments appreciated!

I’m interested in getting involved in this sport, because I’d love to have that kind of motivation to excerise and, more importantly, because I’d love to spend time with a dog in that activity. The problem is, I have no idea how to get started…and what kind of dog would be good for this activity. I need one that would enjoy this sport but that could be good with kids (I have a little girl) and is affectionate! Can you help?
