- Agility training and obstacles are great exercises (both mentally and physically) for your dog. However, the agility obstacles are expensive if you buy them on Amazon.
So, why not build them yourself. For under $100 you can have four of the most common agility obstacles.
In this video, I walk you through how I built them with just a quick trip to Home Depot and an afternoon in the backyard.

This is AWESOME 👏 👏Thank you I can get my husband to do this for my Aussies! I thought 💭 you’ve done this before! Great job 👏
I wish l could buy pvc pipe and joiners for $100. But when one lives on islands in the South Pacific, everything is expensive.
However necessary is the mother of creativity so I seriously appreciate your video.
I have a young Catahoula puppy who is super smart, super fast and super hyper. We don’t have farm animals on our life style block nor do we hunt, so l figure agility would be a great activity to give him a challenging exercise.
For the weaving poles, l am using electric fence stalks wrapped with pool noodles so he doesn’t wack himself on the steel rods as he runs through. I have scored some old bike tyres from a cycles shop for the tyre jumps. Your video has been a big help.
Thank you, will subscribe so l can follow your progress 👍
So happy to have found your video. I built my first jump last year from TH-cam but your instructions are far better and I’m looking forward to making the teeter, the circle jump and a new ramp walk. I’m a volunteer puppy raiser for Canine Companions for Independence and it’s important to expose our pups in training to various obstacles and services. It’s a great confidence builder and the pups enjoy it! Thank you for clear instructions and excellent video! I’ll be following your other videos!
👍👍 Very cool. I don't use glue either so once they get proficient on an obstacle you can take it apart & build other stuff. You can also use pool noodles & ¾" PVC to make soft jump poles & circles etc. Great fun ☺️ 🐾🐾
The noodles are a great idea.
I really appreciate you making this video! I've been looking into dog training clubs around me that offer agility and am realizing just how expensive it is! You making videos like this keeps agility open to more than just those that can afford to go to dog clubs. Thank you!
Exactly what I was looking for! Portably agility course. Thank you
I pre bought a “agility coarse” for my mini Aussie but obviously it didn’t come with everything so I’m going to be using this, thanks
You can’t get full agility sets on Amazon anyway you have to buy the big things seperatly
I definitely want to try this to use with my Border Collies! Thanks
Found you and subbed before end of video after seeing how much equipment I could make myself that I didn't even think of after only finding videos for individual equipment from other 'tubers.....thank you so much
This is great! I'm getting a German Shepherd which will be training to be a service animal, guard dog and these dogs need a lot of stimulation. An agility course is huge tool to help it burn off it's energy. So glad I found your video.
How's it going!!!
You had helped me enough!
Thank you, from Brazil! 🇧🇷
Great video. So informative and just what I was looking for, for my 13 month old Australian Shepherd! She has so much energy and I have the yard space so this video is exactly what I was looking for so not to break the bank on an obstacle course for her! Who knows she might even be a show dog one day thanks to your brilliant diy ideas! Thank you so much for sharing your easy to understand building ideas! Cant Waite to get started building this for her! Oh and did you get any good tips on getting your dog started on this? if so, please share with us!
This is what I was hoping to find thanks!
Thank you for providing this instruction. Very cool! You saved me hundreds of $ if not thousands!
thank you. i appreciate the time you took to build this
That is really ingenious!
What a great tutorial, thanks dude!
Very COOL!
Amazing, just re created the hurdles by following the video. Very informative 🙏🏻 Saved a lot of money
I will be making these soon!
People need to adjust these to their size of dog. Both length wise and width. Too small of a dog walk or seesaw for larger dogs are accidents waiting to happen. And I’d recommend putting down some kind of gripper tape to avoid slips.
This is awesome! Thank you!
Enjoyed the video
Amazing and in such a good budget! I will definitely be using this. I’m assuming this course would be suitable or an average sized female boxer dog?
You are the best
+forrest privett thanks. Do you have dogs?
Thx so much you just saved me £350+
Glad it helped.
You are a great teacher -- helpful
You are so kind. Thank you.
Thank you for posting this video. I am also interested training my Rottie in Agility Obstacles. I have two questions. First question how many 1'' Sch 40 PVC I need in total to build the ramp and tee-a-tar. The second question how many 3/4'' Sch 40 PVC I need in total to build the tire jump and weaving poles. thank you
Great DIY. YOu said the planks were made with 1" x 8" board? But below I saw 1" x 6"Please confirm. Also I don't think I heard the length on the teeter totter board ? And what board were they 1x8 or 1x6?
You can use either 1x6 or 1x8. The narrower boards will require a little extra concentration from your dog-which is a good thing but could require a little more practice before you get it down.
I want to do this
Give it a try and tell me how it goes.
Thank you!
For the Dog plank walk, will it be hinge side up or down when finished
Did you ever make the videos using this equipment? I couldn't find it.
How did this work out for you? I couldn’t find any videos? 🥰
Can these obstacles be made with larger/stronger pvc? My 50+ lbs Belgian sheepdog broke the teeter when he ran up on it.
Yes. Absolutely.
How wide is the see saw plank and how long? Thank you! Great video, thanks for sharing!
I used a 10’ 1x6
How long was the board for the see saw? (Dimensions please) Thanks.
I think we used 1”x6”x8’ on that one
Do you attach the dog walk to the pvc base? Not sure if i missed that.
Did you ever do the follow-up to this? Cause I can't find it.
How many inches are the dog stops for teeter totter and dog walk?
This is genius! Thanks for sharing
Glad you liked it!
For the planks and seesaw, what's the weight limit you think.
Depends on the boards you choose. These pvc pieces should hold a 100lb dog with no problem
Please… what’s the plank info
What were the lengths and sizes of the planks for the walker?
I used 1x6” boards and they were 8’ long
I didn’t watch your video but I hope you gave credit to the videos you got this idea from.
If you did not watch the video how do you know that I did not come up with these ideas on my own 😉
KayCee C. You should get a job in a Patent law office.
Thanks for the video, it was worth watching.
Making an assumption there.
