Answer 1

Join the yahoo group agility equipment and make your own. Lots of good plans and people to give advice as well. I made an AKC regulation course, it is not as hard as you might think.

Answer 2

Try your nearest park. When I did agility training with my search dog, I used the neighborhood playground equipment. Slides are great for slippery footing and ladder climbing. A picnic table is great for climbing and balance practice. Merry-go-rounds are good for balance, and other pieces of equipment can be used for training as well.

Or you can make your own out of bricks, boards, old tires, pieces of large pipe, etc. Just make sure that boards are sanded to avoid splinters and that the equipment is stable enough to hold the dog's weight without tipping.

My dog passed his search and rescue agility test with no problem, using nothing more than homemade and adapted agility equipment.

Answer 3

Make your own! PVC pipe for jumps & weaves. hoops, pvc pipe and a tarp to make tunnels and chutes.... alot cheaper than all that over priced equipment
