Flyball is a dog sport in which two teams of four dogs race against each other and the clock. The race is composed of heats in which each of these four dogs are required to jump four hurdles, trigger a box that deploys a ball, catch the ball and then retrieve the ball over the hurdles to the start line successfully and in order. Dogs that excel at this sport are energetic, focused, and have the desire to retrieve, but any dog can play. Any size breed and mixed breeds are welcome. In this class, you will learn the principles of motivation without force and technical aspects of the sport, including sequence jumping, ball retrieval, and proper box turns. Dogs should have a working knowledge of the basic obedience commands to participate.
