Weight control...

When Agility training is 'out of season' it is vital to keep your dogs well exercised, supple, and fed according to the amount of work they do... otherwise they will put on weight. [Bit like us, really! Though our main downfall is WHAT we eat and drink, not the amounts. But that's another whole different story.]

Long walks do them good if the weather is kind, and doing heelwork to music can be a wonderful way of keeping them supple, even if you can only fit in a few moves in a small room.

As for feeding just don't over-do it! Easy to say, not so easy to do... especially if your dog is an inveterate scavenger with eyes to melt the stoniest heart!
