Imagine, if you will, combining a drag race and a relay race for dogs!
Flyball is a fast and furious sport, where a team of 4 dogs race one at a time over 4 jumps to retrieve a ball from a spring-loaded box and then back again.
The world's fastest teams run all 4 dogs through the relay in under 16 seconds!
Flyball is a great way to burn off excess energy in your active dog and have fun with the family pet. All dogs (large or small) in good physical condition who love to play are welcome to join us.
If you would like to join the team or come out or come out and watch a practice, please email Jennifer.
