Does anyone have their dogs into flyball? I just signed up for a class. I think it's going to be so much fun, starts in November. My dog loves to fetch the ball and run with it, loves to jump over things (lol), and runs very fast. I'm not so sure she will stay in her lane, though.

I've never heard of this before, but I'm in Mesa, AZ! I'm looking it up as we speak...

My dog LOVES to play catch. Sometimes he gets so excited when I'm about to throw the ball that I think he's going to pee himself. Crazy dogger

Hehe, yeah, my dogs are the same way. We've been playing flyball for about 4 years. I decided to start up my own team. I have two border collies.

Alrighty, I looked it up. I think my dog would probably LOVE this...but, how does one train a dog to play it?

I'm not exactly in shape, so if I have to run after my dog I probably won't make it past 2 minutes

I would if my dog got along with others AND he would get the ball and bring it back! He loves to go and get it, but he loves it more when you try to get it back from him. Punk.

Default How do you get started in Flyball?
I live in El Paso, TX and can't find any flyball groups. Any suggestions on how to get one started.

Did you go to flyball.org or u-fli.com? They have team locators on their websites.
