Product description
Flyball is a fast-paced dog sport where teams of dogs race against each other from start to finish over a line of hurdles to a spring-loaded box that releases a tennis ball. The dogs must catch the ball and race back over the hurdles to their handler, at which point the next dog in the relay begins.
Here are some key aspects of flyball:
Teams: Flyball is played in a relay format with teams consisting of four dogs and their handlers.
Course: The course typically consists of four hurdles and a box that releases a ball when activated.
Objective: Each dog must complete the course by jumping over the hurdles, triggering the box to release the ball, and returning over the hurdles.
Relay: The next dog begins the run only after the previous dog crosses the start/finish line.
Physical Activity: It provides excellent exercise for dogs, keeping them fit and healthy.
Mental Stimulation: The structured nature of the sport stimulates dogs mentally as they learn the rules and techniques.
Bonding: It strengthens the bond between dogs and their handlers through teamwork and training.
