hippychik42 Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 I have a life scout beginning his Eagle project. His plans include the construction of a K-9 obstacle/agility course. The area is 40'X60' and in order to determine the materials needed, he needs to locate some construction plans. Can anyone help? (his computer is in the shop, and any links/info will be forwarded to him when he is back online). Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k9gold-scout Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 Call the AKC Agility V.P. (Patrica Krause) at (919)816-3575 or the general agility # (919)816-3725. GREAT IDEA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoreaScouter Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 Depending on what type of obstacle/agility course your Scout has in mind, you could also call the nearest Air Force Base. All have military working dogs who are required to be exercised/trained regularly on such courses, and all USAF kennels have these courses on premises. Tell me where you live, and I could point you in the right direction. KS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hippychik42 Posted July 8, 2002 Author Share Posted July 8, 2002 I am in Mid-Michigan. The non-profit group that offered the idea was founded and is run by two K-9 officers (from the department that I work at{civilian emp.}). They recently purchased property to administer the program out of (Anti drugs, gangs, violence) which uses the dogs and muppet type puppets. The program has not only been in the Michigan area, but also several states around the country. The K-9s are working dogs and attend required twice monthly training at a Detroit school. Two of the K-9s were at ground zero. So, the officers know what is needed. I just need to direct my Eagle candidate to some sources... Thanks for your responses! Keep them coming...I want to offer him choices, it's his job to make the contacts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
