All about Doggy Jumps

 

Do you need to get your Shepherd ship-shape? Does your terrier stay on Terra-firma? Levels of dog fitness have been an area of concern for many experts and agility jumps are a good way to overcome this problem. No matter if you own a mongrel or a pedigree, they all need to be agile and Doggy-jumps doesn’t take sides.

Doggy-jumps are brought to you by the people who invented Mini-jumps, the childrens equestrian jumps. We have considerable expertise in making these items tough and safe and are responding to requests to produce a specialised Dog jump version that is also sized to suit official rules. If Fido’s looking fat or Bonzo needs to boing, get your hound hopping over some Doggy-jumps and let the fur fly!

The base of Doggy-jumps is heavy enough to ensure the jump does not tip over on a slope or uneven surface but light enough that they can be carried without major effort.

The shape was developed so an upright can fall easily if rover doesn’t quite make it over, yet remain stable at all other times. The crossbars fit into slots in the uprights which allow plenty of tolerance for uneven surfaces and mean the uprights do not have to be positioned a precise distance apart. No narrow or sharp edges exist to pose a danger and no splintering will take place even if an upright is damaged (by driving over it in a 4x4 or something!)

Uprights are machined from a high grade moisture resistant MDF composite which ensures you won’t get splinters even if you manage to break one (latter unable to achieve in 18 months of testing). They are then finished with a tough protective coat. For maximum durability, we do recommend putting them away during poor weather.

The correct way to jump...
By jumping the correct way the very light yet durable crossbars will dislodge if struck.

Striking the jump...
If the upright is struck sideways, the narrow width ensures it falls away easily, minimising the chance of injury.

Even if the Doggy-jump is jumped the wrong way and a crossbar is caught, the base shape ensures the uprights fall straight ahead and not towards the jumping K9.
