Does anyone participate in agility with their small breed? How did you get involved, and what are some of the considerations?

I signed my Japanese Chin, Loki, up for an Agility course last Spring. He was a natural! Some things you want to take into consideration are the dogs age: they should be full grown and comfortable around other dogs in a training environment. Learn more about Loki's adventures in agility in my blog post:

I participate in agility with my cavalier king charels spaniel and we love it. He has lost weight because of it and his tail is always wagging and he is always ready to run! I suggest getting a course put in your backyard. Then if you want to compete that is great too! We have never competed before but i'm considering it becuase it is SO much fun! Good Luck! :)
