Wikipedia
Dog agility is a sport in which a handler directs a dog through an obstacle course in a race for both time and accuracy. Dogs must run off-leash with no food or toys as incentives. The handler can touch neither dog nor obstacles, except accidentally....

Questions & Answers
NADAC Agility Question?
I'm having my first NADAC trial in 2 weeks (never competed with them) and my dog is entered in standard, jumpers and full house. My trainer says that if we Q in jumpers and full house, we get some sort of title or award. I'm having trouble finding info on this (she could be wrong), and I would appreciate anyone sharing their knowledge. Thanks
NADAC is a lot of fun. And for a new competitor, it gives you a lot of runs in one day (some of the NADAC trials in my neck of the woods have as many as 8 runs a day you can enter in).
If you've done other organizations but not NADAC, here are a couple of things you'll "likely" find to be true with NADAC.
1. No pause table
2. No teeter
3. Longer course with more distance between obstacles. If you've got a fast dog, than the ability to "send" is important.
4. No or few wraps (unlike say USDAA).
5. Definitely obstacle discrimination.
6. NADAC allows training on the course as long as you aren't too obnoxious about it.
Full House (based on the card game) is actually a CPE event. I'm not aware of it being offered by NADAC. NADAC offers a lot of games but I've never seen Full House offered at NADAC trials here in the mid-Atlantic. So I "think" your trainer is wrong on this when it comes to NADAC.
Technically speaking, it's not if you get Q's in 3 events (say: standard or jumpers or whatever) you get a title because it used to be possible to get 5 out of 10 points on a run and get a Q. Think of it as points: you need 30 points to get your novice standard title and 30 for jumpers and so on.
Here is the link to the NADAC page with info on titles: http://www.nadac.com/Rules_for_NADAC_trials.htm#_Titles
NADAC Dog Agility-Collar Rule?
I've just started training my dog to do competitive agility, and I'm interested in registering her with NADAC. On their website, the handbook says that the dog needs to run the course without leash OR collar. I've seen some local competitions, and this "no collar rule" doesn't always seem to be the case, particularly with the novice level dogs. Is this rule open to interpretation? Or is this strictly a local thing I'm seeing?
1. As others said, NADAC has a mandatory "run naked" rule. Let me add to that--if your dog leaves the course after the run without being under control, you automatically get a disqualification, even if the run was clean.
2. I've seen instances where a dog ran with a collar. It was ALWAYS an instance where the exhibitor/competitor forgot and the judge didn't notice.
3. It's possible you might have been watching a "show and go" or a match (neither of which provide Q's or title points) or a training class (where instructors may not have a problem making runs wearing collars or harnesses).
By the way, definitely join NADAC. For a beginner, it's great. With AKC you wait around all day (and novice classes usually run last so you show up early for measurement at 7am or so and then may not get your first run in until 11am or noon--that's rough on a novice handler and dog!). But the vast majority of NADAC trials I've been to have 6-7 events each day. For a novice, those are lots of opportunities to run. Plus, they allow training on course. So if your contacts stink, you can go back once and work on them. Finally, with all of the various games, you can start trialing even if there are some obstacles your dog can't handle. Let's suppose your dog isn't reliable at weaves or contacts. Then just sign up for Tunnelers! NADAC offers a lot of great options for novices--I highly recommend it.
