Eligibility & Rules:

Boundless Junior Agility Camp is designed for improving and building on agility skills. This camp is not meant for foundation dog training. Please read through all prerequisites prior to registering for camp. Questions regarding eligibility for camp should be directed to our email.

Prerequisites for Boundless Junior Agility Camp

• The handler must be a junior handler, which we define as 20 years old and under at the time of camp.

• All levels will be working on standard and jumping courses. This includes 12-weave poles, dogwalk, teeter, and a-frame. Dogs must be proficient on all obstacles and at least 18 months of age to attend camp.

Reactive Dog and Aggression Policy

The safety of our campers and their dogs is of the utmost importance to us. To enforce these safety policies, aggressive dogs are not permitted at camp. Reactivity is accepted on a case by case basis; please direct any questions or concerns to bjac.juniors@gmail.com.

Multiple Dogs 

Campers are welcome to bring multiple dogs to camp (maximum, 3). If you wish to run multiple dogs each session, you will need to register for multiple spots. If you wish to split your sessions between the dogs, you will need to include each dog on your registration form. (example: Dog’s Name: Jinx/Lime)

Groups

Groups will be limited to 11 campers each. A video must be submitted alongside your registration form, so that we may place you in the appropriate group. When you select your group level, you may request the group you believe is the best fit, but we can not guarantee that you will be placed in this group. If we believe your skills would better fit in a different group, we will communicate this to you via email.

Non-Refundable Deposit

At the time of registration, a $350 deposit is required for BJAC East and $300 deposit is required for BJAC West. Registration will be considered incomplete without a deposit. This deposit secures a working spot for a camper at Boundless Junior Agility Camp and counts towards the total cost. This deposit is non-refundable and will be accepted through Stripe. Once your registration form is received, we will contact you with payment instructions. 

Payment Plans:

BJAC is willing to give approved families an extended period of time to pay their registration fee in portions. A payment plan must be agreed to by both parties and a contract must be signed by both parties.

We reserve the right to deny registration to any camper or dog viewed as unfit, unsafe, or inappropriate for Boundless Junior Agility Camp.

Group Levels

Intermediate: Groovy (Group A)

Great for newer handlers and dogs alike, this group is designed for dogs with sequencing experience including 10+ obstacles. Handlers may still be working on skills such as front cross/blind cross/rear cross, but dogs should be familiar with all agility obstacles. 

Masters: Funky (Group B)

This group is designed for teams with experience training and/or competing at the AKC/USDAA Masters level or UKI Senior/Champion level. Generally, for this level, we prefer teams with at least a year of experience training on full courses.

Intro to International: Boogie (Group C)

Possible JOAWC goals, looking to run more ISC/FCI style courses. Some experience with backsides, threadles and other international techniques. Minimal to some experience with international courses (FCI A1/A2 level).

International: Chic (Group D)

Prior experience training/practicing on international courses, possible JOAWC goals / past team experience. (FCI A2/A3 level). Note: No LAP Dog Handlers permitted in this group.

REGISTER!

Registration opens on December 15th at 9 am PST/12 pm EST. A button will appear when it is officially open.

Campers are required to fill out a registration form that asks for details about themselves and their dog(s). The form takes around ten minutes to complete and requires a payment method for the deposit to be entered before the form will be accepted (the deposit will count towards the total cost of registration). Because BJAC spots often fill up quickly, we recommend being prepared to complete the registration form and having a payment method nearby as soon as the form begins accepting submissions.

We also require a video to be submitted that clearly demonstrates the team’s ability level as it corresponds to the Group they want to register for. For example, a team wishing to be placed in East Camp Group D should demonstrate coursework at the AKC Masters/UKI Senior or Champ/other International handling level, including backsides and threadles . A publicly-available YouTube, Vimeo, or other comparable video sharing platform link should be submitted in the camper’s registration form. If for some reason this link does not work, we will reach out to you via email to request a new link.

​Camp Fees & Registration Dates:

Early Bird: December 15th through 22nd — $650

Regular: December 23rd through March 31st — $700

Late: April 1st until camp — $750

We are using a new registration system, so there are bound to be a few kinks to work out. Please email us if you run into any trouble during registration.

Waitlist:

All registrants who register into a certain group after that group’s ten spots have already been filled will be placed onto a waitlist for that group. We do our best to move campers to the appropriate groups and make space for as many waitlist registrants as possible, but there is no guarantee that all waitlist registrants will get spots. All waitlist registrants will be refunded their deposits if they do not get spots at camp.
