Weave poles/ Is this a problem??

kleinenHain · 09-15-2010, 09:48 AM

My new up and coming agility king is almost ready to hit the ring ( have him entered for Nov.) and he is nothing but awesome and is fast....

Enzo is so fast that he is braking the weavepoles. I've seen dogs do this before and I've not seen one get hurt yet but I know there's a danger it might happen. Should I try to brake this or go with it? I dont want to start slowing him down and lose his speed....

As long as he's not getting hurt, I wouldn't slow him down....

I've seen the BC's break the poles and they do fine and get the Q.

We have a crazy golden in this area that does that. His problem is that he's so fast that he's out of control all the time. The way he throws himself at the weaves and other obstacles is frightening and he's clearly going to hurt himself in the long term.

I want my dog fast, but I want him to have a long career too.

Thanks, I dont want to slow him down at all so I guess time will tell. I dont want him hurt. I guess we will see what comes of this

thanks again

I'd let him demolish them as long as he isn't getting hurt

) You need to video that cause I wanna see the kamikaze!

Another reason I love this boy!

kleinenHain · 09-15-2010, 10:58 PM

I agree Diane, I will get some video but you know once I do that he may never brake one lol Hey, thats one way to get him to stop lol

For as long as I ran my male I only seen this done once and it was a rocket Lab.

I've seen some fast Shepherds but never seen one brake a pole
