Positive Training ONLY
Agility is a fun and exciting activity for you and your dog. You are teammates, and the most rewarding achievement in agility is the relationship that you develop and refine with your dog that allows you to run as a team .
We use only positive reward, play and food treats to let our dogs know when they understood a command or learn a new skill.
Prong collars, harsh corrections, or harsh words just have no place in our training here at Central Florida Dog Sports.

Training Grounds and Equipment
Our Training and Trial Grounds
Safety is important and we understand dogs. Our field is 110 x 110 with 4 ft high no-climb horse wire , 6" top boards and securely gated. For trials we use wind barrier screens on three sides to help with distractions. Field lights allow us to work in the cooler evenings when needed.
No boredom training
We have developed a puppy/foundations and fitness section so while one dog is working in the ring the others have meaningful things to do to accelerate and firm up their training.
