Definition
Programs that teach dogs, in the company of their handlers, to negotiate an obstacle course, performing each obstacle in the correct sequence. Emphasis is placed on accuracy and speed as well as safe execution of each obstacle with faults being assigned for knocked down poles, missed contacts (the start and end of the see-saw, A-frame and dogwalk), or taking an obstacle out of sequence. People may train their dog in agility skills in order to participate in competitions or just for fun.
