Butterflies and Panic Attacks
We’ve all been there before, whether it’s giving a presentation at work, watching our sons and daughters step up to the plate at a key moment in their baseball game, or when you hear your name called to move to the start line for your jumpers run. It hits you like a sledgehammer to the gut. The bottom falls out of your stomach and your legs feel like jelly. In your head you ask “Why do I do this to myself?”

Flyball Dogs and Injury Prevention- Conditioning, Warm-up And Cool-down
Most injuries seen in flyball and agility dogs are repetitive stress injuries, not the result of an acute event. One of the most important goals for a handler is to minimize the possibility of those injuries and give our companions a long, comfortable and successful career.

Introducing Your Dog To The Flyball Box
I start my classes with jump work in one area of the training grounds and box work in a totally separate area. I don't mix them together for three or four weeks. If your handlers insist on "box work" and you do not have a safe box ready yet, teach them the "step" exercise.

Improving Passing
Some people recommend that dogs learn passing by giving them more room on the first/last jump. One way to do this is to remove one side of your jumps and place them such that you will have up to 48" between the sides. The sides can be brought closer together in small increments as the dog(s) progress.

Improving Flyball Speed
What you do at training sessions is far more important than actually having a training session. If you want to increase speed you should have training sessions with that in mind. Compare it to tennis players that wants to improve their service, they would practice serving in training.
