Agility is quite a strenuous activity for dogs and certainly not appropriate for very young dogs with growing bones. However, if you want to do agility with your dog, especially if you want to compete, there are non-strenuous exercises you can do with him in preparation for adult training before they reach 12 months old.

In this video, Marianne Tembey from Patchwork Training demonstrates some of these exercises and explains what each is for. She also gives some helpful advice on which exercises would be appropriate for what ages of your puppy.
