This hurdle-hopping sport welcomes all shapes and sizes, and is suitable for almost all breeds, providing a wonderfully inclusive and enjoyable community where like-minded dog-lovers can get involved.
Agility
Dogs can explore the jumps, tunnels and weaves of our Agility course at their own pace – a chance for experienced canines to enjoy a challenge or for novice dogs to get to know this popular sport.

With the benefits of mental stimulation and challenging aerobic exercise, this sport is a fun way to keep your dog (and anyone who might be watching) entertained. Learn from two disc dog trainers from Adrian Stoica Disc Dog School, the Academia Disc Dog: the most qualifying school in Europe for the preparation and updating of professional disc dog trainers.

Excellent for energetic, ball-focused dogs but not limited to those with a herding drive, Treibball is a great source of ‘job satisfaction’ for canines and improves dog/handler communication.
Heelwork to Music
An ideal way to provide a playful challenge for your canine companion, Heelwork to Music is a chance to explore what your dog can do as you find a sense a rhythm together.
CaniCross
Tremendously good fun and a great way to get fit by enjoying off-road adventures running, biking or scooting with your dog, you’ll get to know the specialist equipment and how to use directional cues before trying a short interval of CaniSport with your dog.

To this day, dogs can stay at the Hotel, accompany their owners in the restaurants, and even join our Members’ clubhouse, The Kennels. We thought that it was only fitting to dedicate an entire event to them, just as we do with cars and horses at our other flagship meetings.
As a team, we have a deep understanding of what really amuses our dogs. We know that they love playing together with their owners and with other dogs, getting plenty of exercise and fresh air, but each have their own personality.
Four times Disc Dog World Champion
Dogs mean so much to their owners so I'm looking forward to seeing some fantastic designs to house them in style.
