A-Frame

Ive been seeing pics of staffys doing A-frames and long jumps and wondered if any1 can help me with info, like what age is best to start them training, what there is they can do like different obsticles, any sites i can check out etc etc, im new to this side of things so any info would be great.

cheers

I'd try to find a decent agility training class.

You shouldn't try agility, though, until your dog is a) at least 18 months (although the non-impact bits are ok, like the tunnel & weaves) and b) until your dog is ok off lead amongst other dogs.

Ok Cheers.
I'll look into classes
Thanks

Agree with Caryll they should be at least 18 months. Even then only light training because they are still devolping until the age of 2.

You can start doing all the basics, contact work, direction work, wing wraps, pull throughs ect when they are young, that way when they are old enough at 12+ months you can start piecing the jumps in and they know what you are asking of them.

Pups shouldn't doing doing jumping or the a-frame, dog walk or even weaves till 12 months. You can do channel weaves at a young age as they are not actually weaving like they would in a competition.
