Dog sports

Teamwork,
played for real.

Four disciplines to burn energy, challenge the mind and strengthen your bond with your dog. For every dog and every owner, from first steps to competition.

Agility

An obstacle course to tackle together: jumps, tunnels, weave poles, dog walk, seesaw and A-frame. The dog takes them in the right order, without faults and as fast as possible, guided only by the handler's voice and body language, with no touching and no lead.

  • Builds coordination, agility and self-confidence
  • Burns energy in a healthy, structured way
  • Strengthens communication: your dog learns to read your body
  • For dogs of every size, grouped into height categories

Jumps are introduced gradually and only once the dog has finished growing.

Mantrailing

The dog searches for a specific person by following their scent trail, starting from an item that belongs to them. They work in a harness on a long line, in the field, in nature or in town, while the handler learns to read every signal until the person is found.

  • Makes the most of a dog's nose, their most natural talent
  • One dog at a time: ideal for shy or reactive dogs too
  • Builds confidence, focus and calm
  • Suitable for dogs of any age, size and fitness level

Scent detection

The dog learns to recognise a specific odour and find it hidden in containers, indoors or outdoors. When they find it, they indicate it calmly by stopping and pointing to the spot. A sport that reproduces the work of drug and explosives detection dogs.

  • Intense mental work: more tiring than a long run
  • Trains self-control and patience
  • Perfect for older dogs or dogs with physical limits too
  • An activity to share, where your dog “talks” to you with their nose

Rally Obedience

A course marked by signs: each sign is an exercise (sit, down, stay, turns, changes of pace and direction) to perform with your dog at your side. Unlike traditional obedience you can talk to your dog and encourage them: precision matters, but harmony within the team matters most.

  • Gives your dog more freedom, because they learn to cooperate by choice
  • Strengthens the recall
  • Increases your dog's focus on you
  • Open to everyone: a great first sport, from fun in the field to competitions
