Did you know your inbox is full?
Sherlock's Watson - 09-01-2013 01:34 PM View Conversation

Did you make your own agility jumps? I am thinking about building some for my mom's German Short haired Pointer - she just turned one. It looks like PVC pipes but I am not sure how you made the "cups" that the bar rests in --- is it just a join where most of the connector was sawed off?

She needs something to help wear off some energy at the house. Going to the dog park twice a week helps wear off some energy but having something at home could help.

Jewel, your Pyrs look soooo happy and they are so sweet looking! I'm so curious to see what Miya looks like as an adult, but don't want to wish her puppyhood away! Kim

Hi, thanks! Sorry, didn't know you wrote, I never knew to check this?? Hope your girl continues to do well with her knee!!

Hi, it's nice to see others in Texas that love the breed. Your puppy is so pretty.
