I feel very strongly that the best bit about agility is the partnership with my dogs - everything else is a bonus.

I am so fortunate to have such wonderful partners to adventure with.

We are a few months into the competing season and I feel it is high time we had a post for everyone to share their achievements.

These might be big or small and might change over time. It’s definitely not all about winning (although I think we all like to win).

I’ll kick things off with a few highlights for my dogs:
Sizzle and Wild have both won a Reserve CC. They have also both qualified for KC Stakes semi finals to be held at KCI. Both have been selected to run for Team Scotland at WAO in 2026. Both dogs head to Portugal next week to represent Team GB!
Sizzle has been super skilled and consistent.
Wild has been super fast and in some runs things are coming together (other runs not so much 😵‍💫🤪).

Most of all it is about enjoying the journey together with your very special partner(s).

Over to you guys 🥰

I always encourage folk starting their agility journey either with their first dog (of any age) or with a new young dog to join Agility Geek as well as attending classes. It has so many fantastic exercises from the very beginning stages to competing. It also has so many tips for generally living harmoniously with your dog - recall, retrieve, self control.
I am super proud that Wild can help to show the great skills she has learnt being a part of Agility Geek.

Please can folk help my friend in Ireland with her research project. Thanks ☺️

Please can folk help my friend in Ireland with her research project. Thanks ☺️

Does your dog take part in agility? We want to hear from you!

We are inviting people who take part in dog agility with their pooches to tell us about their experiences.

The study is being undertaken by Veterinary Physiotherapy Postgraduate Student Brónagh as part of her master's degree at the University of Liverpool.

Brónagh says:
“I have been involved in dog agility for the last 10 years with my 3 dogs Zeus, Strike and Gunther. During this time, I have developed a keen interest in preventing injuries in agility dogs.
This study is aimed at anyone who trains or competes in dog agility within the U.K. and Ireland. Your dog does not have to have sustained an injury for you to participate as all answers are extremely valuable for this research.”


If you would like to participate (the questionnaire is completely anonymous), please click on the link below or scan the QR code in the image and read through the information sheet before completing the online survey.

Thank you in advance for participating. Your involvement is invaluable in helping us improve our understanding of this important area of canine health.
