An agility run, is also known as an agility 'trial'. This requires a dog, a handler, and an open space for the trial. Once you get a command- the handler must send his/her dog over a variety of obstacles, such as: The A-frame, 3 or 4 jumps, the Dog-Walk, the Tire Jump, the Weave Poles, the Schute, the Tunnel, and the Paws Table. The Paws Table and the Weave Poles are the hardest for a dog to learn, the Paws Table is when a dog must sit on it for 5 seconds and have a command to be let of. The Weave Poles are when a dog has 6 poles, 2 feet/24 inches apart, and must weave them. My 2 dogs do agility!
