A jump throu hoop for dog agility training - 12 inch-cheap please?

[Storminateacup]

Looking for a small 12 inch hoop for my Jack Russell to train with for dog agility. I dont want the expensive real thing as they are just a rip off.
Does anyone know where i can get hula hoop for say small child.

Thanks - dog does the big hoops easily.

Toys r us usually have some small ones, not sure about 12 ins though

Can I ask why you want a small hoop? For agility comps they are a standard size.
Petsmart do cheapish agility equipment.

Hi there. I think it is 78 x 115cm but not totally sure. However there are these sites where you can find out more about agility and some sites who sell agility equipment. They have pics so you can see what the items are like.
Do you go to an agility club? It really is important that you have proper training as incorrect training can be unsafe for your dog.

www.rvaagility.com ---I know this one and all of the clubs around me use these.

These are just some I know of. If you google agility equipment you may find others,

In agility the equipment is set to different heights according to the size of the dog--small, medium and large.

Hope this helps. Let me know how you get on.

Hi when I was buying stuff on the Robinsons website sale I noticed they do lot of dog agility stuff, they do seem to be quite cheap just a few pounds each.
