So, Phase One of the backyard agility course is complete. We now have two cheapo homemade obstacles -- a bar jump and a tire jump.
Phase Two will require clearing away all those dead bush stumps and some of the English Ivy, whereupon we can install a tunnel, a chute tunnel -- first piece of which is on hand and in the picture, next to the lettuce barrel --weave poles, and a resting table. Plus another bar jump or two.
Phase Three will include the teeter-totter, bridge, and maybe the A-frame. You can see what real dogs and equipment look like here: Dog Agility.
I really enjoy watching agility shows; the dogs are having so much fun! Good luck with a fun hobby.
ReplyDeleteIt's especially funny to watch Jude run, little stubby legs churning. We had our last foundation class last night, and he was the star. Not border-collie class, but raring to go.
ReplyDeleteWe'll be moving up to Agility One next class.
Layla needs a little more basic obedience stuff, she's still just a young girl, but she can fly when she gets moving. She'll blow the socks off the Papillions ...
