Weasel Puppy Flyball Shop



So, are you wondering
what is flyball? Flyball is a dog competition where teams of four dogs, race over a series of jumps to trigger a box to launch a tennis ball, which the dogs each catch and carry back over the jumps to their handlers. You can find out more about training a box turn here.

Ball Shagger and Handler Designs

Flyball Ball Shagger Design

The ball shagger in flyball is the person who stands at the back of the runback area and gathers all of the tennis balls the dogs bring back into a wire basket, which is also called a "ball shagger." This may seem like a trivial role, but it is actually very helpful. Every race, within few minutes, 12 to 30 tennis balls end up rolling around the runback area. There are also dogs racing back and fourth, handlers sprinting back and sometimes running backward, with all of their attention focused back on their dog as it races. That runback area can be a very busy place.

Junior Handler Designs

Flyball Junior Handler with DogAre you looking for a gift for the Junior Handler on your team? Maybe they want to acknowledge their first race.

The handlers on a flyball team line the dogs up, release them at the appropriate time, and then call them back across the finish line. When the handlers line up their dogs to race, they often rev them up by saying "ready." Some teams say it all together, as sort of a group harmonic in the runback area. Flyball dogs tend to explode when they hear the word "rrready."
