Our club is open to all dogs over 8 months.
Please check with your veterinarian before hand if you have any doubts about your dogs fitness/health for flyball.
We all lead busy lives and finding a balance between work and family is not easy. We believe in balance, we welcome competitive and recreational flyballers. The amount of racing you do is up to you but weekly practice is a must, anyway your dog will love you more for it! Not to mention that flyball practice beats a walk in the park any day!
We are great friends with Dog Gone Ballistic and get together regularly for some practice racing. A great opportunity to test the dogs and see how our training is progressing. For the recreational members it's an opportunity to race your dog without having to commit an entire day or weekend of your time. It's an added bonus with our club.
Our competitive members travel to Region 20 tournaments (Eastern Ontario and Québec). Visit our news page to find out how Lucy and Sammy did in their first season of racing
We use positive re-inforcement only, clickers, toys and games to teach our dogs the game of flyball. We break down the flyball run into its' basic elements and once the dog has mastered each individual element we gradually blend them together until the dog is doing a full run. Each dog is allowed to progress at his own pace. This method has worked very well, our dogs are very consistent at tournaments and run clean and are quite obviously having fun. Even the shy ones can't resist!
Jennifer Brownrigg is our team captain.
