Australian Labradoodles in Flyball
An Australian Labradoodle loves to run and jump! Since a fast run over four
jumps are key ingredients to flyball, an Australian Labradoodle is well suited to
excel in this sport.
Training your Labradoodle to run over the four jumps is relatively easy. The
harder job is training him to hit the box correctly, catch the ball and turn back in
an instant. Then, what may be the hardest of all is instilling in your Labradoodle
the confidence and focus to compete in a team sport where two teams, each of
four dogs, are running simultaneously, side by side and passing the dog before
and after within inches, all this in an exceptionally noisy and frenzied venue. The
noise and frenzy is provided by the hundreds of dogs that cannot wait for their
turn in the racing lanes, it begins the moment the first race of the day starts.
As with training for Agility and Obedience, each step of the flyball pattern must be
trained with high praise, rewards and most importantly lots of fun.
Flyball, sometimes called "doggy drag racing," is an exhilarating sport in which
you and your Labradoodle can have a lot of fun.
