We are so excited to starting our fourth year offering dog agility in the White Mountains! We are looking forward to another successful summer with lots of great people and talented dogs. This is the second year that we offered winter classes, and we had a super time, even doing agility in the snow! All of our equipment is new and in great shape.
We are located on 7 acres, 20 minutes from Show Low, driving on 260 towards Heber. Our property is fenced and the field area is also fenced.
All our courses will be set up to encouraging speed, working distance and overall-having fun in the beautiful cool White Mountains!
We can't wait to see you and also, getting to know the newcomers! Please feel free to contact us with any questions or ideas!

Snow Agility 2024!
Congratulations to Leslie and Shelby!!
Leslie and Shelby received a first place during the USDAA regional championship and is now qualified to go the USDAA nationals!!! Everyone that knows Leslie, loves her. Leslie is a warm, wonderful person that is always so humble. Her dog, Shelby, is not only super sweet but runs like the wind! We are all so proud of them both!
Congratulations to Shawna and Luc!!
Shawna and Luc got 6 Q's, 5 placements and 2 new titles this last weekend in Albuquerque, NM. Shawna and Luc make such a great team, it is a pleasure to watch them work together. Luc is very focused, is super bonded with Shawna and he really loves agility. Good job to the both of you!
Congratulations to Marie and Finn!!
Marie and Finn received their C-ATCH in CPE! Marie has worked so hard and Finn has progressed rapidly under her handling. Finn adores Marie, as we all do! We are so proud of them both. The best part is watching Finn's ears flying behind him as he runs-it makes everyone smile!! Good job to the both of you!
WHAT DOGS SAY
Lexi says:
Sunday is Funday Agility, at the “Ranch in the Forest” with Diane. No discipline, just fun!
I’m Lexi a 7 1/2 lb Morkie. Agility is not just for big dogs, I can make the teeter totter move and have no fear of climbing the A-frame. Diane has all the fun obstacles that mom & I are learning. I’m so fast….mom needs to start her own training to keep up with me!
Finn says:
Fun, fun, fun!! Ranch in the forest has a great agility set up! I get new runs every week to challenge me but best of all, Diane is teaching mom how to handle me with confidence!
Sugar says:
Woof! Agility training is pawsome! I get to run, jump, and play with my human, which makes me wag my puppy tail like crazy! Figuring out those obstacles is a fun challenge, and I love the treats and belly rubs I get as rewards. It's an exciting bonding experience with my owner, and I feel like a champion when we complete the course together. Can we go again, please? Woof!
Timber says:
I am a rare Black Norwegian Elkhound. Some people in my home country call us moose dogs because we sniff out large animals for a living. I was bred to be a tracking dog so I didn't know about this fun Agility game! Sometimes dog people say elkhounds are stubborn & hard to train & I'm proving them wrong! I like my trainer, Diane, because she tells my human he can never say NO! to me because it's only FUN time for my favorite treats. I can't wait to do Agility in the fall & winter!
Zephy says:
WEEEEVE!
Shelby says:
Agility at Diane's in the White Mountains is so much fun! I love class and the run throughs, I get to run fast, get treats, and see my new friends (2 and 4 legged!). My mom says Diane has a great eye and is helping her be a better handler, which is good because I can run faster than her! I love trying the new courses every week, they are so much fun to run. I do think the weaves are my favorite, don't you think I look happy doing them!
Lefty says:
“I love going to my new Agility training classes every week this summer. I am now able to do things I never dreamed I could do, like walking up and down the Teeter-Totter in a controlled way and walking up, then down the A-Frame bridge. I LOVE going through the Tunnels (my favorite). Our trainer, Diane, has also done a good job training Mom on how she can help me learn in between classes.”
Cody says:
Hello, my name is Cody and I am a four year old Border Terrier. I love coming to the Ranch on week end to play. I squeal when we turn on the driveway! My Mom thinks I am excited to do agility. In reality, I can’t wait to run in the fenced, sandy arena and climb on the A Frame to look out for the wild horses, the neighbor’s dogs or other creatures. It is so fun to be in the forest. I’ll miss it when we go back to town in the Fall but then I’ll see my doggy friends again at agility trials, including the new ones I met at the Ranch. I am such a lucky dog!
Luc says:
“Going to agility class is my Best Day EVER, every time we go!”
“My mom said agility might be something I would like but she was wrong. It’s something I LOVE!”
Wilson says:
Hi! my name is Wilson and I'm a 5 year old German Shepherd. I love Agility so much ! I just started , but it's sooo fun!!! My favorite is the A frame (aka Climb) and I get to go up and down real fast!! that's so fun! I also like all the new equipment and the area that we go to to practice!! My teacher Diane is amazing! she is so patient with me!!!
I enjoy all the attention I get from my humans!!! They seem to be having fun too ....oh and the BEST PART is all the treats!!!
Tristen says:
"Agility at Diane's is more fun than anything I'm allowed to do. Lets go again pleeeeease!"
This is what Pace says:
"I get SO happy when I see Diane plus agility in the forest is exciting. I enjoy taking my human here every week so she can practice."
Rip says:
I'm Rippy. one of the bigger pups at Agility. I think this is the most fun thing we do. I get so excited about it that when we drive down Diane's road, I start to whine and bark. Diane has helped me get over my fear of heights and now it's my favorite obstacle! So happy I get to go every week.
Sam says:
tunnels are Bomb! and I love my trainer Diane!
Boujie says:
Hi! My name is Cherokee but everyone calls me Boujie. My mama tried to show me in conformation classes but it was waaaaay too boring. She said I needed something to burn off my energy so she put me in agility classes. Mama says I'm a natural. My favorite things are the dog walk & the A-frame. I even go on them when I'm supposed to be going through the tunnel or over the jumps. Agility is the highlight of my week. I get so excited when Mama gets my leash, water bowl & treat bag because I know I'm going to agility class!
Aspen Joy says:
I can’t wait to get to my agility training. It is so much fun running through the tunnels, climbing the A frame and board walk and doing jumps. I love Diane as my teacher because she makes it interesting and fun and she gives treats. It’s such a fun activity to do., want to come join me?” Aspen Joy
Indy says:
Hi, my name is Indy, I’m a 9.5-month-old mini-Aussie.
I love school and Diane. It’s exciting to see my classmates and all the fun things we learn. The jumping, teeter, tunnel and climbing. It’s always a fun way to spent time together on Sunday morning. I get very excited for my turn. Mom is learning how to teach and Dad’s always there with lots of water.
Chester says:
I am so happy each week when my doggie parents take me to Diane’s agility facility. I have so much fun learning the obstacles and Diane is so encouraging, patient and understanding with me! I would pick a favorite obstacle but I love them all! The faster the better! Sometimes I even miss some training treats in my enthusiasm!
Can’t wait for my next class!
Woof
Patrick says:
So, Jessie told me that he loves agility class! He looks forward to it every week. He loves being challenged and getting to show off. (Especially in front of his puppy crush, a certain mini aussie that he thinks is super cute!)
