Self-tipping hurdles for pet training and fitness

摘要

Various embodiments for a self-tipping hurdle for pet training and fitness are described. A self-tipping hurdle may be portable, freestanding, and substantially symmetrical, where the hurdle is not required to be attached to the ground or other surface during operation. The self-tipping hurdle can include a first hurdle base having a first irregular octagonal cross-section; a second hurdle base having a second irregular octagonal cross-section; a first hurdle post coupled to the first hurdle base; a second hurdle post coupled to the second hurdle base; and at least one hurdle board disposed between the first hurdle post and the second hurdle post. The self-tipping hurdle can be configured to rotate a predetermined amount prior to a rotation of the self-tipping hurdle being substantially impeded when the at least one hurdle board is contacted by a pet.
