Not long ago, Collie owners faced limited opportunities for competition fun with their dogs. While some canine sports like disc dog and flyball were in their infancy, few dog sports could be easily found nationwide, let alone as a side event to traditional dog competitions.

​

Fast-forward to today when the range of sports available to Collies, like agility and dock diving, run the gamut, affording any dog a competition that fits his or her personality and abilities. Some of the benefits you can gain from getting involved in dog sports include a stronger bond with your dog, a better-behaved canine companion, new friendships, and a healthier lifestyle for both you and your dog.
