Hmmm I'm kinda curious if some PVC cement and some PVC pipe would be a cheaper way to go?

All the gear looks abit flimsy for larger dogs, but I suppose for a beginner, (like me) this might be an option. I'm still on the lookout for gear like this so this is definitely a step in the right direction.

I'd like to get Bear into agility. He's part border collie, part chow, I think agility would really help with his self confidence.

That's cool !! I didn't know they carried Dog and Cat items ?!!! Cool ! Yeah, we want to do Agility as well, but will start with the Obedience Club in Pullman. It's free to go and use their agility equipment and you can get advice/pointers from others who attend. When I found out (during Obedience school) I was super excited.. Anyhow, I know JB WholeSale has a beginners Agility set for your back yard for like $39.99. They also have standard equiptment for a tad more (starting at like $66 or something ). We got our new catalog just a few weeks ago and prices haven't changed (thankfully !). We'll probably be getting that once we're ready to start. Bell already shows interest.. just got to see if I can limp and keep up with her

I've heard they carried agility products. I wonder if they're any good?

They look better then the kit they sell at petsmart. I'd like to pick up the chute. The single jump and weaves poles look pretty good. The tire jump looks a little cheap. I don't think I'd use it for a big dog. But would be fine or someone just starting out.
