Flyball is a relay race between two teams of four dogs.  Racing side by side, one dog from each team must go over four hurdles, trigger a flyball box pedal, catch (retrieve) a ball and then return over all four hurdles to the start/finish line where the next dog eagerly awaits.

​

Flyball encompasses all things that dogs love to do - jumping, catching, retrieving, competing and striving to please their owners. Flyball is a sport in which any dog can participate, regardless of breed, shape or size.  Flyball does not interfere with obedience training.  In fact, the sport reinforces the disciplines taught in obedience class.

​

Besides being great for dogs, flyball is a lot of fun for people too!  It can be as competitive as you want to make it, but the best part of all is that it is a great way to have fun with your dog.
