So I want my dog (siberian husky/alaskan malamute cross) to be in a dog sport and I was thinking agility. But she is 5 years old and so is it too late to start her on that?
What might be other dogsport opportunities for her? I know that there’s dog sledding but we don’t have very much snow where I live, nor the materials at our house/area.

It’s never to late to start as long as the dog can handle the kind of exercise. I was actually looking up agility stuff on Amazon.com the other day and they have neat kits you can order with the basics.
Some places that don’t have snow still have that type of activity, only with ATVs, so you might want to check that out.
I started a dog at 5, and he was able to compete until 11. I had to retire him due to eyesight and disc problems. Never to late to start.
