DIY Dog Agility Training?

Steed asked:

I have a four legged brother, a finely intelligent English Springer Span.

In my local woods he is easily tempted into jumping fallen logs and random thickets but transferring this to the back garden has proved harder.

I’ve made three jumps in a line, all around his head height and clear-able. One of bamboo cane, and the others raised fur tree clippings (like horse jumps).

If I throw a ball through, he’ll go round the side. If I hold the ball in front of his face, he can just about be lured into jumping (even choosing the duck under occasionally) but loses interest after going through once or twice.

What’s the best way to get him into the mind set of ‘if there’s a jump, I’ll jump it’, so I’d be able to throw a ball from one end and have him jump and weave over/under the obstacles?

Team Jacob <3 asked:

Hey I am thinking about starting agility training with my dog and I was wondering if there were any places around here that you knew of that did dog agility classes? I’m looking in the Apple Valley, Rosemount, Lakeville area. Anywhere within an hour or less would be great! Thanks!

Cait… ♥APBT♥ asked:

Hi,
i have a 6 yr. old male Pug named Curly.
i was wondering if it is possible to do agility training on him?
if not then please give me a way to show my parents how much i want a dog and will care for it. can you help with that?
because i really want a border collie and i know they are good in agility plus i want my own dog.

THANKS!

P.S. we have the money. it would be trained as early as possible and would be from a shelter. the only problem is my prents won’t stop saying no
OOPS! i mean parents not prents…SORRY FOR THE MISTAKE!!!
Cher…
or should i say Immature

Teags C asked:

i am interested in entering my whippet in an agility competition, but i don’t know how to start him off for training, we don’t have those jumps but we just use mops or brooms or skinny logs, and can we use leads to guid them around and what types of jumps and stuff will be in it.

hunterjumper666 asked:

I’ve been wondering if there were any agility training clubs in maryland, I keep trying the sites for agility and all I come up with are, the organization sites, which I get lost on looking for a club in MD.
Does anyone know of a club in md, or even a more manageable site that I can find one?
I have a mixed breed which is not suitable for most AKC events because shes a mutt.
Again, shes also pitbull lab mix which is going to complicate things in PG

What makes a dog a good candidate for agility?

Dog1 — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 20:11:25 +0000

Jane M asked:

I’m interested in starting my dog in agility training b/c I’ve noticed how fast he picks things up and I want to bond with him more. I wouldn’t put him in competitions or anything, just a backyard thing. I just don’t want to buy the stuff and it turns out its not his thing. What characteristic do most agility dogs have that make them good at what they do?
