Joining an Agility Club

When you move to a new city or region of the country, it’s not always easy to make friends. This is especially true after college, when most people have settled into a normal routine that involves their core group of friends. If you aren’t having much luck meeting interesting people at work, try joining a club. Dog owners can register with the American Kennel Club and then join a local dog agility club.

Each agility club has its own membership rules and regulations, but in all cases a participating dog must be at least a year old. To get your dog into the swing of things a bit early, you can purchase canine agility equipment for home use. Try setting up a small obstacle course in your backyard to replicate the experience of a real agility show. After a bit of training, you’ll be ready to impress the members of your local club and maybe even make a new friend or two.
