There are a bunch of great sports to play with your dog. This weekend my dog Isa and I tried APDT Rally. Rally is a more casual version of obedience competition. The exercises are challenging. You're allowed to talk to you dog and encourage with petting, treats, and other types of rewards.
We took it slow and steady. This is a Level 1 course. Isa scored a 201 out of a possible 210 points. We had a great time together and met some fun dog people.
If you're considering trying a dog sport go to an event and watch. Dog people are almost always happy to talk about their sport.
