Q-Quest Agility Training

QQuest Agility offers classes outdoors on dirt in a fully fenced arena, with an indoor arena available for limited classes during winter. Class sizes are capped at 8 dogs. Most classes, except the beginner class, operate on an open format where clients pay only for classes they attend. Classes are primarily on Saturdays, with an additional Wednesday evening class.

The Beginner Class is for dogs new to agility, focusing on safely performing obstacles, basic foundation training, and moving through short courses. Goals include off-leash control, obstacle performance, and basic course handling. These are 60-minute classes, and aggressive dogs are not permitted.

Intro to Masters Level Classes progressively teach higher-level skills for improved obstacle performance and more difficult courses. Goals include obstacle independence, distance work, advanced handling, and learning specific class rules (gamblers, snooker, fast). These are 75-minute classes requiring off-leash control.

The International Style Class is for teams seeking skills for AKC Premier, ISC, and UKI style handling, focusing on challenging elements like hard weave pole entries, threadles, and backsides. This 75-minute class requires a high level of obstacle independence and is offered based on demand.
