Everything you need to know to get started with the fastest dog sport around
Flyball is a fast-paced relay race for dogs. Teams of four dogs race side-by-side over a 51-foot course, jumping four hurdles, triggering a spring-loaded box to release a tennis ball, then returning over the hurdles with the ball. The fastest team wins. It's one of the most exciting dog sports, with races often completed in under 20 seconds. Any dog that can catch a ball and jump can participate, making it accessible to mixed breeds and rescue dogs alongside purebreds.
