WONDERFUL GUIDE TO AGILITY August 25, 2009
S. Myers (TX, United States)

This book is thorough!!!! Everything I needed to know about agility is in THIS BOOK! I am soon to be a parent of an Aussie puppy and agility is going to be her job. This book has answered many questions I have had from picking out the right temperament in a dog to explaining the different clubs and organizations that host agility. I also love that the author reminds the reader that agility is all about fun. Very good book! Highly recommended. :)

Great book especially for the novice dog handler, but packed with information that even experienced handlers would find useful. Clear, concise and thoughtful presentation. Good pictures and diagrams; a must for anyone that wants to try their hand at dog agility.

This book is very helpful to those people interested in what agility is all about. If you are thinking about starting agility or even if you have already started the basic training this book is a must have.

I found this book because my dog really enjoys training classes so I thought agility might be something we should look into. This book gives good overview about the sport, the desired dog personality, basic agility course. I also like the author's writing and the overall tone of the book. Plus, good colorful pictures through out the whole book. This is a book I'll keep it on my bookshelf for awhile even if my dog is not ready to get into dog agility yet.
