What We Do

Oakley Canine Athletics is a functional fitness company focused on the overall health & conditioning of canine athletes.

We are dedicated to teaching ALL levels of dog agility; in conjunction with personalized canine fitness training, to help properly develop canine athletes to reach untapped levels of potential through both fitness & sport.

Our mission: to transform dog agility teams by optimizing the strength, proprioception, balance, & cardiovascular health of each individual canine athlete.

We are locally based out of Saint Matthews, South Carolina; in-person agility coaching takes place outdoors, on our 150’ x 85’ all-weather artificial turf field. Our field is filled with over 40 tons of pure silica sand for the best surface traction & safety of our canine athletes.

Virtually, we currently work with students all across the globe through mobile and online platforms; providing one-to-one agility & canine fitness coaching, virtual seminars, & online self-study courses as well.

The Dog Who Inspired a Dream

The company’s namesake was sparked by the loss of Oakley, a blue merle border collie who tragically lost his life to Blastomycosis at a very young age.
Oakley ignited a fire in Laurren to become the handler her future dogs needed - leading her to learn from the top agility trainers from all around the globe!

Oakley’s memory lives each day through Laurren’s work and the achievements & successes of her students.
