Topology- noun- the way in which constituent parts are interrelated or arranged.

Topography- noun- the arrangement of the natural and artificial features of an area. 

There are so many moving parts in agility- and they are all connected. We have dynamics with our dogs, and we have relation to the obstacles. The variables are always changing; the arrangement of the course, the way in which we set up our training sessions. There are literally endless possibilities for how something will be presented to us, how we will present to our dogs, and how those things will effect the way that we navigate and communicate with our dogs.
