What Are Hoopers & Agility – And Why Are They Great for Dogs?

Engaging activities that improve fitness, focus & teamwork

🐾 What is Hoopers?

Hoopers is a low-impact dog sport where dogs navigate a flowing course of hoops, barrels, and tunnels – no sharp turns or jumps! This makes it perfect for dogs of all ages, sizes, and abilities, including senior dogs or those recovering from injuries.

🐕 What is Agility?

Agility is a fast-paced dog sport where dogs run through obstacle courses featuring jumps, tunnels, weave poles, and seesaws. It builds confidence, enhances focus, and strengthens communication between dog and handler.

Why Are These Sports Beneficial?

👍 For Your Dog:

  • Provides mental stimulation and prevents boredom.

  • Improves physical fitness, balance, and coordination.

  • Strengthens their ability to listen, focus, and follow cues.

  • Builds confidence in anxious or nervous dogs.

🌟 For You:

  • A fantastic way to bond with your dog through training.

  • A fun way to stay active together – no prior experience needed!

  • Teaches you better communication skills with your dog.

  • A supportive community where you can meet like-minded dog owners.

With a background in professional dog training and behaviour modification, she ensures that every session is tailored to suit dogs of all abilities, from beginners to those interested in competing.

Struggling to Find the Right Activity for Your Dog?

Many dogs have energy to burn but no structured way to release it. This can lead to frustration, destructive behaviours, and hyperactivity. Owners often think their dog isn’t suited to activities like Agility or Hoopers – maybe they’re too big, too small, too excitable, or not "obedient enough."

But every dog can enjoy these sports. Whether your dog needs a confidence boost, a way to channel their excitement, or just a fun activity to do together, Hoopers & Agility offer a structured, positive outlet.
