Organiser, Richard Chubb, said getting a dog to top level "takes a long time" but the basics are easy to pick up.

The courses are packed with obstacles which range from jumps to see-saws and tunnels.

Dogs of all shapes and sizes took part in the three-day event.

The top performers will get a place at Crufts 2014.

The competition attracts prancing pooches from throughout the UK and across the world.

The festival is one of the world's largest and most popular dog agility events.

More than 2,000 daring dogs took part in the Festival at Rockingham Castle, Market Harborough.
