Agility Equipment and Prices

Do to rising costs in materials, prices are subject to an increase without notice. For the most current price of any pieces shown, please contact me, a_stylesetter@att.net and I will be happy to price the material and provide a new price, if warranted. I will do my best to hold prices as close to the posted prices as possible. There is a nominal fee for delivery. Depending on the piece, some out of state shipments may be possible. For the most part though, most equipment is only available in the north, northwest, and western suburbs of Illinois.

Agility is a fun way to bond with your dog. By teaching your dog agility you're also building up self esteem and confidence in them. By making it a FUN experience for your dog, you both enjoy the shared time together and the bonding that evolves between the two of you. It helps relieve built up energy in the dog, not to mention a good work out for you. You can make it as competitive as you like, but remember, it has to be FUN for your dog in order for it to be rewarding for the both of you. This equipment meets all AKC height requirements as of this writing. All contact equipment are dual heights, thereby letting your dog get use to the new experience and later being able to accomplish the true heights.

Thanks for your interest in my equipment.

Agility rocks with the right equipment

This equipment (click on the word equipment to view a YouTube video)was made for the Roselle Park District and features many of my pieces custom painted for them.






My pieces can also be seen on a video at Pals for Pups day care. This was a custom hand painted logo for the Roselle, IL Park District grand opening event for a dog park on August 22, 2009.


This is a good way to keep all the equipment together. If requested, most pieces can be broken down for easy storage, without jeopardizing the integrity of the equipment.




These Weave poles can be used with just 6 or put together to make the competition 12. The poles can also be angled so the dog gets the proper training of weaving in and out. Same principal as the guide wires. For an additional cost of $2.00 each, in ground stakes are available.








Schaumburg,IL Park District

The A-Frame is made with handles on each section for easier moving. For indoor use only, wheels are attached.














































































































This Teeter can be made to be adjustable for training purposes. It can be as little as 12" off the ground for the dog to build his confidence in the beginning, then raised to the standard 24" later. If you want an adjustable base, please add an additional $10.00 Hand painted logo for Schaumburg Park District.








































Training hoops are a way to teach the dog to make contact in the "zone" entering and exiting the equipment. Can be used on the A-frame and the Dog walk.

Sand Bags are an easy way to keep your tunnel or chute in place, yet portable enough to store.








These are useful in keeping the dog focused on the jump verses going around the side.




This is a good tool for teaching the dog to "think" on how to use and control their rear legs.

This is the newest piece in my collection. A comfy place to relax after agility. This dog lounger measures 40x30 and stands 12" off the ground. Good for dogs with arthritis or other aches and pains. Keeps them off the hard surface of floors or the ground. It's great for the outdoors too, just hose off when dirty. $45.00. Smaller sizes available and prices adjusted accordingly. Personalized at no additional charge.
