Olympics 2012 and Pet Agility

We watched the opening ceremony for the 2012 Olympics on television yesterday. We look forward to watching the competitions as well.

Many people do not know that there are similar competitions for dogs and cats. They are called agility competitions/trials. The American Kennel Club has been involved in canine agility trials for many years. More recently, the Cat Fanciers Association began having feline agility competitions. These competitions are fun to watch and reminds us how smart, agile and athletic pets can be. If you have not attended an agility event for dogs or cats, these are family friendly events you may consider. They are held in different locations so you may be able to find one relatively close to you. This link to AKC can provide more information on canine agility http://www.akc.org/events/agility/ and this link provides more information on CFA feline agility http://agility.cfa.org/spectator.shtml. If you attend any events, let us know.
