The Brillo International Bounce was launched in 2013 by Graham Taylor as a competition exclusively for Small and Medium dogs. It was named after a small dog he used to have - and yes, you guessed it, his KC name was Brillo Pad.

Agria Brillo Bounce 2017

Agria Agree to Sponsor 2017 Brillo Bounce

Agria Pet Insurance and Country Shows Agility are delighted to announce support for the Agria Brillo Bounce competitions in addition to their support for a full programme for Large dogs.

The Agria Brillo Bounce competitions are specifically for Small and Medium dogs. Heats will take place across the country throughout the 2017 season and culminate in the finals, due to be held in October at the British Agility Championships in Bedfordshire in October, kindly judged by International Agility Judge Jorge Pires, using KC Agility rules.

From each of the 12 qualifiers at each size, the top three at each dog size will receive an invitation to attend the Final.

Each final will consist of two untimed rounds - one Agility and one Jumping - for each size of dog with the maximum course time specified. All double clears will go forward to the Final. In the event of no double clears at either size, a maximum of ten dogs with the minimum combined faults will be selected. All double clears will compete in the final round which will be a jumping round against the clock to find the 2017 Agria Brillo Bounce winner at each size.

Classes will be judged using current Kennel Club rules, and each host venue has chosen which grades are included for each size of Agria Brillo Bounce qualifier. All will run at standard heights.

Alastair Cook, Head of Sales and Marketing at Agria Pet Insurance, said, 'We’re delighted to continue our involvement in Agility again in 2017, and particularly enjoy our support of Brillo Bounce for small and medium-sized dogs. We wish all the dogs and handlers taking part in 2017 the very best of luck, and cannot wait for the excitement of the finals!'

So with all the heats across the country now complete, can we thank all the hard working show secretaries; judges and ring parties and host venues for their support in 2017.

Some 72 invitations have already been d ispatched to our finalists to join us at Agria Brillo Bounce Grand Final at the British Agility Championships in Bedfordshire on Saturday 21 October 2017, kindly judged by International Agility Judge Jorges Pires.

I am sure everyone would want to join with all of us at Agria and wish them the very best of luck at the final. 

The Finals
 British Agility Championships

The Agria Brillo Bounce Finals, kindly judged by international agility judge Jorge Pires, were warmly welcomed the British Agility Championships on 21st October. As the only competition in the UK open to all grades of Small and Medium Agility dogs, there were qualifiers at each size from all 24 heats - all vying to be one of the two overall winners.

As the first two rounds were not run against the clock, Jorge Pires brought some interesting course design to the competition. The crowd around the ring willed the finalists to get a clear round.

Jorge was joined by Martin Tait in judging the Agility round leading to the early evening final which were live-streamed around the world.

Jorge very kindly added some words: 'I had the honour to design and judge the Agria Brillo Bounce Finals. Firstly, thanks for inviting me to England. It was a great opportunity to judge such an interesting competition – one in which the smaller size of the dogs does not reflect the grandiosity of the competition.

Secondly, thank you to all competitors for giving their best. Both the course walk – thinking about the different options, selecting the best line for their own dog and then running so they could achieve the best place were pretty interesting. To the winners, let me say massive congratulations. And for the other competitors, I’m pretty sure that all of you did your best - and that is also winning. It was amazing to see several dogs overcoming their own difficulties in some not so easy courses. Most of all, you showed the ability to run and handle your dogs while having so much fun. That is what agility is all about. So, I would say that all of you touched me somehow and, for me, you are all winners.

Of course, this wouldn’t have been possible without the helpers who did their best to ensure a smooth event, and so we should thank them for their professionalism shown in the ring.'

With some bubbly to help celebrate, a share of more than £200 of prize money and a £250 voucher to each of our winners to spend on a DogFriendly holiday, we reckon a good day was had by all.
