Have you taught your dog HOW to jump?
With jumps being the most frequent and NQ’ed obstacle in agility, it is vital to develop and maintain proper jump mechanics. Jumping up to 20 obstacles, under handler direction/distraction, with tight turns, discriminations and at full speed is a challenge!!
Improper jumping mechanics may result in:
Dropped bars.
Wide turns.
Off courses.
Long course times.
Injury (short term and/or long term).
