Some dogs require lots of exercise to burn excess energy, and running through an obstacle course is a great way to do just that. The athletic challenge keeps a dog fit, helps prevent obesity, increases endurance, and strengthens bones and joints. Plus, an Obstacle course exercises a dog's mind, giving them opportunities to learn and solve problems.
Learning to negotiate obstacles will help prevent boredom, provide a number of emotional benefits, and generally help keep your dog healthier and happier.
This activity will definitely improve your dog's obedience, trust and bonding.
Use of the Obstacle Course is at your own risk.
