Agility
If you like the thought of obstacle courses, the excitement of timed trials, and the idea of training as a team with your dog, Dog Agility might be for you.
Dog agility is a dog sport in which a handler directs a dog through an obstacle course in a race for both time and accuracy. Dogs run off-leash with no food or toys as incentives. The handler can touch neither dog nor obstacles. Consequently, the handler’s controls are limited to voice, movement, and various body signals, requiring exceptional training of the animal. – Wikipedia
