Wednesdays at 8:00 pm (Starting Wednesday, July 17, 2024)Dogs have been introduced to most/all of the equipment and are comfortable with them, though not necessarily at full height depending on age and ability of the individual dog. The Seesaw may still need assistance and weave poles are still a work in progress. Dogs should be able to stay with the handler for short sequences off leash.
