Dogwood Training Center has a great facility for agility training. Outside we have eight fenced acres with ample room for small group parking, a pond, a walking trail, and the training building. The training building has a training floor measuring 60' x 90'. The surface is 3/4" rubber on packed dirt, the most forgiving surface in dog agility! Overlooking the training floor is an observation room that is heated and air conditioned.
This is an ideal site for agility seminars, small group lessons, judging clinics, and almost anything else dog agility related. We are *not* equipped for trials.
