It's my first day of summer vacation and I am officially bored. If I do what I did today all summer I will turn into a zombie. So I was thinking about doing some agility with my aunt and uncle's dog Phoebe. It would just be for fun so I was wondering if you knew any way I could make some jumps, hoops, shoots, teeter totters, tunnels and ramps with stuff you can commonly find in a shed or house. (and sorry I have no idea what you actually call the equipment :eek: ) Also how do you go about training it? Just one thing at a time i assume right, which do you find is the easiest to teach?

stack books or bricks (only a few inches) and use like a broomstick or a thin wooden plank as a jump. Toilet plungers make excellent weave poles. a hoola hoop can be taped to a doorway for a hoop jump.

that's all i can think of.

in order to teach agility she need to have all her basic commands down really well, i'd work on that first if she's a little sloppy.

Board on something small like a brick for a tiny teeter.
We are using plunger weaves. 2 bucks each at the dollar store..
