Flag Tag

Your dog follows a fast moving lure as it swipes past the defined check points that are marked by a flag centered within a chalked circle. Dogs are scored on accuracy in following the lure through the checkpoints. As long as at least one paw crosses into the circle, the checkpoint is scored. Again, no prior skills, experience or training is needed.

Race Ball

A standard tennis ball is propelled from a ball machine thus assuring uniform ball throws. The dog chases the ball down an enclosed course and is timed from the start line until the dog fetches the ball in his/her mouth.
