About Fun Agility Training
Why I Do This
I started Fun Agility Training after seeing how much my own dog, Bruce, enjoyed learning when it was playful, not strict. I get that every dog is different - some are shy, some are wild. What matters is that you both have a blast together. This isn’t about perfect scores or fancy moves, it’s about connecting and letting your dog just be themselves.
How It Works
You and your dog run through a playful dog agility course - think tunnels, seesaws, and weave poles. We take it slow, no pressure. I use only positive reinforcement agility methods, so your pup feels safe and pumped. For grown dogs (12 months+), we hit all the obstacles including jumps. For little pups (10 weeks+), it’s all about safe puppy agility introduction - no jumps, just gentle confidence building.
What You Get Out of It
- Your dog burns energy, gets smarter, and learns to listen better.
- You’ll see them get braver and more chill.
- It’s hands down one of the best bonding activities for dogs and owners.
- Great way to beat boredom and stress (for both of you).
Where We Do It
We train at 'The Run' in Yelahanka. It’s a big, fenced lawn where your dog can go off-leash safely. All the gear is set up, and I tweak it to fit your dog’s vibe (like making tunnels thoda chota - a little shorter - for newbies).
Before You Book
I always say, ask your vet if your dog’s fit for this kind of play. Safety is top priority, no shortcuts.

My Story
Hey, Gourav here from SAGA. All this started with Bruce, my own doggo - the real boss of the house. He’s why I get up every day and do this. We’ve been through it all, from Delhi to Bangalore by train (chips to mile nahi, but mom’s gajar ka halwa always wins). With Bruce, I learned every dog’s different, no matter the age. SAGA is just me trying to help others find that same bond I have with him, using only positive vibes.
