Help improve your pet's speed, agility and stamina as they enjoy the fresh air and sunshine. Dogs love to run and jump, and this outdoor cone and rod agility set is a convenient and fun way to give your furry friend the exercise they need to stay healthy. Six bright red, heavy duty plastic field cones feature holes that accommodate the sturdy metal rods to adjust heights. The portable agility set is lightweight and easy to transport to the park or beach. The cones stack on top of each other, and each secure yellow pole breaks down into three sections for space-saving storage. Handy for pet parents, dog trainers and doggie daycare facilities, this agility hurdle set makes a useful and engaging birthday or holiday gift, and a thoughtful way to congratulate someone on adopting a new pet. Set includes 6 cones each measuring 16" high, and 9 iron/steel poles that easily assemble into 3 larger poles. Fully assembled hurdle rods each measure 36 1/4" long.
Use a lower height (half of your dog's hock height) for cavaletti work, which is excellent for strengthening your dog's hind limbs, forelimbs, and core muscles. It also helps improve body awareness (proprioception), lengthens gait, and teaches collected balance. Besides getting stronger, the dog learns to use all four of his legs in an efficient and coordinated manner, which helps with the dog's footwork in all facets of agility.
