Barrel Racing
 






Barrel Racing Course


Have you been captivated by the barrel racing at horse rodeos? This exciting and stimulating activity started in the horse world, now is available for dogs at our practice. Your dog will run at high speed around barrels under control and will enjoy Barrel Racing tremendously.


The benefit for you will be that your dog becomes fully focused at you, will pay attention and listen to you at distance even during fast movement.

Big dogs, small dogs, all dogs; this is a great activity for all breeds of dogs.
