I think at our club, you can start training for agility around 9 -12 months. You can't start to compete until the dog is 18 months though. Our club as a general rule when training, says do not make your dog jump anything higher than its elbow until it is at competing age.
With agility, you could start training whenever, all you have to do is take all the bars of the jumps, put the tyre down low so they don't have to jump high at all. Once you get your handling act together, all it is really is getting the dog used to the equipment etc, and listening and following your commands.
