Here in Colorado we have a small courtyard that we believe might be large enough to build a small one just for Toto to get a little exercise instead of having to walk her in the park across the street! It's a great park but I have noticed that some owners of large dogs let them off the leash to play and chase balls/frisbees. I am uneasy walking Toto on her leash over there ... they are probably great dogs but as we all know ... dogs are unpredictable sometimes! Thanks again!

Will be featuring weave poles for small dog training on my website in the spring.

Think agility is a great way to keep your dog in shape but if he's not in shape yet, take it slow and you might want to consider another activity such as swimming or on-leash jogging to get him into shape. You can consider agility like soccer or track and field - or any other human sport. Your dog will be more prone to injury if he's not in shape although the actual activity is a great way to STAY in shape.
