Oh- you might like this, too- I am making some, but wider and higher- cause these are for small dogs- I have just a few more parts to get to finish- and need to take them over to my dad's to borrow some tools. LOL

Here is a manual, but it's from the UK-

and here is a page with lots of links- including an article on preventing injury-

I know that our vet suggested we wait until Natalie was over a year old to train her to jump hurdles, and Hogan cannot start weight-pull until he is past one- so that would be my one bit of advice- just be sure your dog is not still growing.

Edited to add- Hogan also has to have his OFAs first- to be sure there are no hip or joint problems. Nattie is a mixed breed, so there is no standard for OFAs, but we did have her checked by a vet.
