Hoopers

Hoopers is a real dog sport that is actually relatively young. It was originally founded in America and is a part of Agility. It was developed from the idea that some dogs cannot (yet) participate in Agility because, for example, they are too old or too young, or because they are sometimes they physically limited. It is a sport where you work together with your dog!

With Hoopers the dog needs to complete a course in a flowing line. The course itself consists of hoop-shaped equipment (the hoopers), tunnels that the dog has to go through and barrels that the dog walks around. The route can be set up in enormous variations. The dogs must complete the course independently based on voice and body commands. With Hoopers it is not the intention that the owner continues to walk next to the dog. The owner remains standing in a specific area. This makes it challenging!
