Well this ought to be interesting! I just signed Saber up for Treibball & Barrel Racing class. Yes barrel racing like horses do, but with dogs. I had no idea such a thing existed. I have a slight clue what Treibball is from YouTube smile

We will also be taking a more advanced agility class. So excited! Anyone else doing Treibball, or have you heard of canine barrel racing??

Apparently the barrel racing is just like what they do with horses: run a pattern around barrels. Here is a site I found about it. It is fairly new to the USA. http://www.barrelracingdogs.com/

I was thinking barrel racing like with horses also. Looking at this I could see if this takes off a whole cottage industry of racing saddles and riders. penguin

I could see Raya doing it. Cheyenne not some much, 10 years old and a bad knee. But in the spring I might try working with Raya on turning some barrels. I have already been spinning different training techniques in my head.

I have bad arthritis so there won't be much running going on here! I guess we will find out. I can sort of trot a little smile

A friend of mine teaches Treibball classes. Though I don't have much experience with it. Have fun!
