Dog Parkour
Dog Parkour combines elements of human parkour and dog agility to create an accessible activity for dogs and humans alike. Dogs get introduced to the world of jumping, climbing, balancing over, crawling under, and going around different obstacles in their everyday world. Parkour can be done anywhere and is limited only by one’s imagination. Dog Parkour helps with confidence and overcoming fears, and it is a low impact but challenging activity for any canine athlete.

We have a purpose built Dog Parkour Course at the training barn which we use regularly as part of our Dog Activity Classes We also use obstacles that can be found in the local environment such as fallen logs, tyres, chairs and boxes
Parkour Awards
I have recently gained my Spaniel Pip's Novice Parkour Title through the International Dog Parkour Association.
As part of our classes we offer support to any of our participants aiming to gain their parkour titles. From learning and teaching the behaviours, to support recording and submitting clips to the International Parkour Association.

Safety first!
All dogs participating in our parkour activities must wear a harness with lead (if using) clipped to back. Harness width straps must be appropriate for the size of dog (minimum 1 inch straps for all but the smallest dogs). Ruffwear and Hurtta make harnesses which are idea for parkour activities.
The harness may be removed for obstacles that are done at ground level (under, through, etc). |
