Dogs by and large are very agile creatures though the dogs that are most suited for sports competition are those that are medium in size and also the larger varieties. Any dog that is being considered for undergoing dog agility training must first be checked by a veterinarian and he should also be able to obey simple commands such as sit and lie down as well as come, and it has been noticed that dogs that are well trained to obey will succeed at dog agility training much better than those having problems with obeying simple commands.
Dog agility training can be carried out in many different ways though the trainer must ensure that the method used suits the dog the best, and the agility training must be fun for the dog and it would be wise on the part of the trainer not to become overly critical of the dog or try and make it ultra competitive.
