Jumping

What Is Jumping?

Jumping tests an animal's fitness and the handler's ability to train and direct the dog over and through certain jumps.

The course does not contain an “A” ramp, seesaw or dog walk.

Can Any Dog Take Part?

Jumping is open to all dogs so your dog does not have to be a pedigree, or pure-bred dog to take part, but it must be registered with the Kennel Club on either the Breed Register or the Activity Register.

If you decide that Jumping is the activity for you and your dog, your next step is to receive some expert training, for a list of local training clubs, call 0844 463 3980, ext. 212 or visit the Find a Club page.
