Custom Agility Dog Trainer and Club Apparel

Agility dog trainers run high-energy sessions across weave poles, jumps, tunnels, and contact obstacles. The apparel needs to handle 4-6 hour training days with constant motion. Moisture-wicking polos, performance tees, and athletic shorts are the standard. Club apparel programs cover trainers, handlers, and trial-day teams. USDAA, AKC, UKI, and CPE clubs each have their own conventions. Bear Grips prints agility apparel on demand with no minimum.
