Six of the fastest four-legged athletes from the North Shore will demonstrate their skills at Swangard Stadium in Burnaby this week.
These quick canines will be competing against 500 other dogs from across the country at the Canadian National Dog Agility Championships, which take place Aug. 19-23.
Contenders from the North Shore include human teammate Julia Morton with her two Jack Russell terriers Ruby and Fonzie; Fiona Esford with her golden retriever Brillant; and Wendy Alexander with her three border collies Phoenix, Chili and Crush.
Admission to the event is free with a donation to the Greater Vancouver Food Bank. Visit aacnationals2015.ca for a schedule of events.
