Agility:
I am assembling an agility course. The intent is to open up new ways for dog
owners to have fun with their dogs. I am not anticipating teaching this sport
to the level of competition, but rather to provide a place to come to learn
about and enjoy using the equipment. This sport is great for building confidence
in a dog and is a wonderful tool that I use with my Assistance Dogs in training.
Since I have the equipment, I am willing to share it and what knowledge I
have of the sport.
Prerequisite - Basic Obedience

Flyball:
This is a sport I am looking forward to learning about. Depending on the ability
to meet the space requirements, look for this sport to be added to the available
things to do at the K-9 Kompound in the near future.

Day Afternoon": A fundraising

faire, agility and "Canine Good Citizen" testing and possibly flyball events. If you are interested in finding out more of even helping put one of these events together, please email us at:
