Dog Agility
| Dog Agility is the fastest growing dog sport in the UK. It is fast, furious and a great favourite with competitors and spectators alike. Your dog does not have to be a pedigree, or pure-bred dog to take part, but it must be registered with the Kennel Club on either the Breed Register or the Activity Register. Agility is a comparatively new form of dog competition, where the animal's fitness and the handler's ability to train and direct the dog over and through certain obstacles are tested. Agility Shows are run against the clock to ensure that handlers do not take their dogs round the course at a walking pace in the hope of ensuring a clear round. The Civil Service Dog Agility Club is a club that has been set up for all Government employees who are members of CSSC. It is for people that are currently competing in Dog Agility, at whatever level, with whatever size dog. All individual placings count, whether they are at Kennel Club, UK Agility or Independent shows, and there are individual and departmental awards at the end of each year.
