This obstacle will challenge the verbal communication skills within the dog handler team as well as the dogs individual confidence .. the layout of this obstacle has the dog moving away from the Handler while jumping to three possible levels. The first level is at 3 feet, second level 5 feet off the ground and that is attached to the penthouse, a full 7 feet off the ground. Every level is surrounded by bright orange safety fence and will provide a real thrill for the team.
Magnify your best behaviour while making the maze work its magic, turning around all the corners is known to turn on the thinking brain waves. Enjoy the results of your focused walk through and over the maze poles.
This is an agility obstacle at its finest. 12 inches wide and 12 feet long with a teeter halfway along the board, this shifts the dogs balance from its hind feet to its front feet as she/he walks off the narrow balance challenging board.
All obstacles follow the principles that Linda Tellington Jones teaches about being able to make each obstacle easier and as easy as is needed for the dog to accomplish any part of the challenge.
One of the easiest obstacles , this 4 x 8 foot stable platform allows the dog and Handler to achieve success in the playground quickly, leaving the team feeling confident and excited for more. It can easily be made far more difficult by adding the Frame or Dog Door to Safety.
This wonderful skill builder develops eye-paw coordination with it’s cross bars at varying widths. It is used as an additional challenge to many obstacles being a 4-foot portable framework.
A dog that knows how to use a hard dog door is one move closer to safety in a crisis inside or outside a home. This stiff 2 flap dog door has been modified to be harder than any on the market, master these two flaps and your dog will have a better chance using the dog door to safety when needed. This portable obstacle is used as an additional challenge to many others.
Does your dog love to dig and would dig to China if given a place?? Well this is it, delightful digging pleasure found in sand piled high and deep inside a 4 x 8 foot framed pit. You can also significantly increase the challenge of the obstacle by moving the Frame and Dog Door to Safety onto the sand.
Only three feet off the ground this is a wonderful obstacle for the beginner. Following the Tellington-touch theory of making the obstacle as easy as needed for the dog to achieve its goal, we can easily take this obstacle apart to lay it on the ground in pieces or add width to the ramp, making it easy and safe for even the most skeptical. As the dog builds his confidence, eye-paw coordination and length of focus to achieve the balance needed for this 40 foot long ramp, the Handler can amp up the challenge by asking the dog to sit, wait, stay or lie down on only 12-inches of board. The dog with exceptional skills can even master backing up on the ramp. That is a dog with skills to be proud of!!!
Another fabulous obstacle for the beginner to learn to focus and gain confidence. The Handler can be baffled by how challenging it is for the dog to walk on an unfamiliar surface in a basic straight line. Add additional challenge by placing the Frame and the Dog Door to Safety along the Walk Way.
Your tireless tugger will be tremendously tired after playing this game of tug. With her toy attached to a tether that is attached to a 100 feet highline your dog can tug and romp through the Sand Pit and wrestle and tug her way up the Ramp and your back won’t feel a thing.
