A jump is pretty eacy to rig up. I put two T-posts in the ground (about 4' apart), and then tie a cross beam across with baler twine. I use a piece of PVC pipe from the hardware store, it's pretty inexpensive, light, round (no sharp edges) and won't break.

I've used the fiberglass posts, for portable electric fences, for weave poles. You can just put them where you want, and they usually cost about a $1 a piece.

Kids play tunnels make a great dog tunnel too. You can pick one up at Toys R Us for cheaper than you can pick up a "dog" one at the pet store.

The A frame and teeter totter are a little bit more involved, and as you get more interested in agility, that's some equipment you would want to buy or build to the specifics set by competition, as well as the other things should be changed over to regulation heights etc, as you get more and more competitive. But, to start out, you can use anything that works!
