Agility, dog sports & mental exercise
What is dog sport or agility?
Agility is a dynamic form of dog sport in which dog and owner work together to master a dog course with various obstacles. Agility is about promoting the dog's coordination, obedience and teamwork. The focus should also be on dogs and owners having fun together.
At PERRO you will find a large selection of suitable agility equipment.

How does agility differ from indoor exercise?
Agility is physically demanding and usually outdoors - perfect for sporting activities in good weather. Indoor activities, on the other hand, primarily promote mental exercise. Particularly suitable for indoors or quieter days are intelligence toys, as well as thinking and throwing toys for mental exercise, such asZogoflex dog toy "Tizzi"
