Hoopers

Hoopers is a new and progressive sport that is very similar to agility, but more inclusive, lower-impact and designed for distance handling, making it ideal for older dogs, puppies and handlers who might struggle with the activity aspect of agility. Jodie is a qualified hoopers instructor and competitor, and was selected for Hoopers Team GB in both 2025 & 2026.

Hoopers is an all-inclusive sport, however it is far more technical and fast-paced than you may first expect. European-style hoopers requires distance work and precision beyond almost any other dog sport, and is incredibly impressive and inspiring to watch. It is an excellent sport for dogs that are retired from agility, and puppies, however because of this, it sometimes has a bit of a reputation for being boring, which is far from the truth!

Far from being the lesser version of agility, hoopers is a real, difficult, and highly impressive sport in of itself.

Those who want to progress far in agility, I would always recommend hoopers as an aside, as it promotes a level of confidence, independence and distance that is hard to match.

As of right now, Crazelpup is not offering regular hoopers classes, however we do offer occasional hoopers workshops, aimed at all abilities.

FAQ
Q. What is Hoopers?
A. Hoopers is a dog sport consisting of hoops, short 80cm diameter tunnels and barrels. It is judged on speed, accuracy and distance handling.

Q. Is there an age limit?
A. No, not for dogs or owners! My 15 week old pup and my 15 year old dog both do hoopers, only their courses are adjusted based on their ability. Similarly, for less-mobile or older handlers, we can adjust the way we train for maximum success!

Q. Is there progression?
A. Yes, there are many hoopers competitions around the country, and Crazelpuppers will travel to shows together. Jodie is also a qualified Canine Hoopers World instructor, meaning she is able to award CHW Progression Awards.
