Dog sports are activities that involve
Dogs.
Training a retrieve in Schutzhund, a Dog sport.
There is much discussion about what exactly defines a
sport for Dogs.
Some issues:
- If a human companion isn't actively involved, is it actually a sport?
Take
greyhound racing, for example, or
hunting
from, say, a
duck blind, from which the Dog retrieves the game.
- Is any activity a sport? For example, a
conformation show, where the handler and Dog walk or trot around a ring
for a judge to evaluate the Dog's appearance and structure.
This list is intended only to represent anything that anyone is likely to
refer to as a Dog sport, not to argue its validity as sport. Clearly,
there are more sports to add to this list:
