Agility Books
*Enjoying Dog Agility : From Backyard to Competition
Julie Daniels
A nice book on basic agility training. If you're new to agility, or learning to instruct, this is an excellent book to get. If you're fairly experienced, though, you'll not find a whole lot here.

*Agility Training: The Fun Sport for All Dogs
Jane Simmons-Moake
Excellent agility book, from a top USDAA competitor and instructor. Covers basic to advanced training, games classes, sample class structure, building equipment, etc. Should be in every agility competitors library.

*Switching Sides : Making the Transition from Obedience to Agility
Kay Guetzloff
A great book to dispell the myth that you can't train a dog for two different sports and be successful. Lots of good information here, particularly for the experienced obedience competitor.

*Agility Course Notebook
George Phillip Quinlan
Everything you need to draw courses. Obstacle template, grid sheets, and mini notebook for quick sketches.

*All about Agility
Jacqueline O'Neil
A nice introduction to the sport, with some good information for those new to showing. Not much for experienced competitors.

*Jumping From A to Z
M. Christine Zink, Julie Daniels
Excellent book on one of the fundamentals of agility, jumping.
