What is Flyball?
Flyball is a team sport for dogs and their handlers. Teams of 4 dogs each compete in a relay race in which each dog runs a course over 4 jumps to retrieve a ball. The handlers are responsible for motivating their dogs to increase their speed and timing to make the overall team time as fast as possible. (The record time for 4 dogs to run the course is currently 15.22 seconds set by Spring Loaded. More common are times in the low to mid 20s). The competition is two-fold; the team races against another team for tournament placement and also against the clock for points toward titles.
