WHAT IS DOG PARKOUR FUSION?
Dog Parkour Fusion blends elements of human Parkour, like balancing, climbing and crawling over obstacles, with other dog-training disciplines such as obedience, trick-training, agility, hoopers, and Tellington-Touch to form a fun fusion of quirky urban style agility.
THE BENEFITS OF PARKOUR FUSION
‘Parkour Fusion’ is a fun recreational activity that is lower intsensity and speed than agility and is, therefore, accessible for all ages, physical and behavioural abilities. Dog Parkour Fusion is also adapatble and could be enjoyed everyday as part of a daily walk or at home with a range of environmental or creative obstacles you might find. Above all, the courses and challenges are a fun experience for both dog and owner, providing mental and sensory stimulation, while building responsiveness, confidence and trust that further enhances your bond. Dog Parkour is a non-competitive sport, which aims progres your own personal best through the challenges.
