Better Sporting Dogs Agility Course Backyard Set - 7pc

Love this set. It has 3 jumps, weave poles, tunnel and the chute with the floppy end. Instructions were easy to follow. It even came with the sand bags to hold the tunnel down. You do have to fill them with sand first. The weave poles do tend to come apart if you move them often but they go right back together easily. Definitely worth the price. My cocker boy and older cocker girl are having fun!

Love my agility set for my pup. I’ve always loved dog agility although I don’t compete (yet). This probably stems from passion for equine Jumpers. Aside from pure fun, it’s also a fantastic exercise both mentally and physically with dog training and communication. As for critiquing the kit itself, it’s pretty straight forward and easy to set up. You get multiple bags tp hold different parts, especially the PVC pipes for the jumps. I do wish there was one large bag that would fit all of them into one, or even a rolling duffle of some sorts that I could take to the local park with me so I don’t have to take multiple trips. Otherwise, my pup and I love it! As well as a puppy sleepover mate!

We weren't expecting much given the price and some negative reviews but we are pleasantly surprised. Our 2 collies have been training at the startup level for maybe 10 sessions original so and after 2 tried they did as well as usual. They even went through the closed end tunnel for the first time without hesitating. The PVC was cut cleanly and all the parts fit together nicely. Even the directions were in English ( as opposed to asianish) with pictures which made the assembly quite clear. And the sand bags were excellent as well. The only jump we have trouble with is the hoop. It's too light and even though the dogs get through, it falls over every time, hence the 4 stared. I would recommend this set for a backyard practice rig, but watch some YouTube videos if you and your dog are newbees.

Portable, light and easy to carry. Not exactly the toughest but for the price it works great! My dogs are small with the biggest only 28 lbs. My 17lb Jack Russell took right too it, of course she loves doing anything with her Daddy. I like how the jump poles can be just set on it so they fall off easy for the beginner... don't want them to trip and get scared but then can be snapped in place once they are more confident. I'm not sure how long this would last with big dogs but for the easy of setup and portability even if you only get one summer it is a good value....with my little dogs I'm sure they will get a lot of play out of it.

Easy to set up and take down. Comes with carry cases but I added an case I had on hand for the plastic brace joints. I looked at the cheaper sets but this one gives me what I need for the basics in training. I have one German Shepherd and two Berger Blanc Suisse so this is the correct size for training the medium to large dogs. Will work for the littles, too. Much better quality. Alas, it is made in China and I am working away from that brand all I can. But it is a good set for the money.

For the cost of this set, we are very pleased overall with it's contents and performance. Highly recommend for someone just getting into agility. Great practice equipment to set up in your yard or a park to get your dog started in agility training.

I ordered this set as I am just starting agility classes with my dog (65lb f boxer). This set is lightweight, easy to assemble, and move. It is sturdy enough for practice without being flimsy. So far so good! I would add that after the original box was damaged in shipping, UPS returned it to Hoffco prior to delivery. Hoffco e/m'd me the same day to let me know and then sent me the tracking number for the replacement shipment the same day. Very good customer service!

Our one pup had been thru tunnels we had previously so she took to everything in the kit. Our newly adopted dog had no idea what to do but between watching our other girl and some treats he was doing the tunnels in a matter of a few minutes. Let me pass some info on. I see complaints that one of the tunnel is broken down and doesn't stand up etc etc etc so they give this kit a bad review. Please read what you are getting. there is one long tunnel....regular tunnel. The other tunnel is called a blind tunnel by some. It does SAG at one end and that is what it is supposed to do!!!! The is part of what dogs have to do during agility training! For our new fella (with the green bone) he watched our Sasha and was curious but did not go all the way through the blind tunnel. So (as we had taught Sasha previously) once he would do the regular tunnel and took the blind tunnel and knelt down by the floppy side and opened it so he could see me from the other end. Once he saw me and came through once while i kept the floppy part from falling down he came through next time on his own. THe third time I let the floppy part "flop" and he came through like a champ. Just be patient and teach your pup what to do. Agility training takes some time to teach them. the other parts are just fine... Chewie would try and go around the jump (which i held in my hand at first to keep it low) and after seeing a little treat on the other side he never looked back. Love treat patience....the keys. Have fun with this!! You could also perhaps see some videos of agility training to help you help your dog.

This set is so easy to setup and use, it is awesome. I keep the weave poles and jumps set up all the time and can move them inside in the winter for more fun. Lightweight but sturdy. I have had this over a year now and it is still perfect. I move the tunnel by collapsing it when we are getting a lot of rain and store in the shed. So easy with the storage bags. My dog is now getting ahead of his other agility competitors. A lot of fun.

Its not built for heavy duty use or large dogs (60lbs and under!) But for someone who wants to train their dog in their backyard how to play the basics of agility, this is perfect. Its easy to assemble and very lightweight and portable. I wish they had color coded each individual thing and its pieces, but colored tape is what we used!

Was easy to assemble and of good quality. Have not really used the tunnels yet but the dog loves everything else. I own a very active 2 year old American Spaniel and this set easily stands up to his use and abuse. I have been using it a few months already.

Super easy to put together. Instructions were clear with coloured images. Not flimsey decent quality I would recommend to anyone

I got a puppy in the early fall, a Bernedoodle and, since I'm no spring chicken, I thought this would be a way for us to have some play time and fresh air together. He loves it and I'm really impressed with how quickly he's learning these tricks. They are very light, I have no problem carrying them, and assembly is just using logic, even without instruction, quite easy. I started off with just a few poles for him to weave and I can add as he improves. I wouldn't hesitate to suggest this to anyone.
