Fleet Feet Agility
 In
1996, Bonnie Goodfriend opened the doors to Fleet Feet Agility Center offering
classes for all levels of agility enthusiasts, from first time beginner through
dedicated competitor. Dog agility is rapidly becoming the most popular dog activity
in the world and Fleet Feet Agility Center offers an ideal environment
in which to learn this exciting new sport.
Located in Acton, just outside the Antelope Valley, in Southern California, Fleet
Feet Agility Center welcomes all dogs to participate in its classes. Dogs
and handlers train on regulation equipment, in small, ongoing classes and progress
at their own speed. This allows dogs that are motivated and quick to learn the
freedom to move up through the levels rapidly while, at the same time, not pushing
a dog or handler to advance before they are ready. In addition to learning how
to perform the agility equipment, dogs learn proper social behavior in group classes,
basic obedience and how to work under the direction of their handler. The handlers
learn how to build a solid working relationship with their dog partners, to communicate
effectively, to evaluate courses and direct their dogs through a course and receive
all the information they need to enter their first agility trial.
When the dogs and handlers from Fleet Feet Agility Center begin to compete
they are confident, prepared and enjoy the success and achievement that comes
from patience and hard work. Although the emphasis is on eventually testing one's
skills in the trial arena, competition is not mandatory. Some people come to agility
classes simply to have fun with their dogs and enjoy the company of other dog
lovers. Others come to work on a dog's behavior problems or build confidence.
And, yes, there are those that come to agility classes with dreams of ribbons
and titles; fueled by the desire to take their dog to the top. We'll help you
and your dog achieve your goals at Fleet Feet Agility Center.
