Minnie and Erin practicing their agility skills.

We made our own practice set of weave-poles shorter than the height specified under USDAA or NADAC guidelines. This made it easier for Erin to lead Minnie through the poles and get the hang of it more quickly. Notice that every other pole has the colored bands. This makes it easier for the dog to know which way to weave. Whenever we have company over, Erin whips out the agility equipment and does a little demonstration and we all applaud and everyone has a good time with it. Minnie weavin'

The jump is really easy to make to specifications with the feature of adjustable crossbar height. The bottom crossbar serves as the minimum height that you would use, and using tee-connectors and glue, keeps the whole thing together. Erin's friends enjoy being part of the fun. Minnie jumpin'
