Dog agility is a sport in which a handler gives commands that direct a dog, off-leash, through an obstacle course.  Accuracy as well as speed is important - the dog must complete the course in proper order and in proper form.  The handler cannot touch the dog.  The dog is guided through the obstacles using only voice commands and body signals.  The obstacle courses can be simple or complicated and consist of obstacles including the A-frame, dogwalk, teeter totter, jumps, tunnels, tables, and weave poles. 



The Moonwater Dog Agility Team is comprised of a maximum of ten kids,  Junior Handlers.  They train about three to four times per month and compete in local dog agility competitions sanctioned by NADAC and ASCA. Training is led by Judy Pedery-Edwards, owner of Moonwater Aussies and an award-winning agility competitor.
