The Ulti-Mutt Desire

The Ulti-Mutts was created by Mad City Dog Training in the Spring of 2000. Flyball is a fun sport that utilizes many of the skills that are taught in our Obedience, & Agility classes. Four dogs make-up a relay racing team that involves: jumping over a series of 4 jumps; hitting a box to release a tennis ball; catching the ball; and returning over the 4 jumps; at which point the next dog starts the jump sequence. It is a great activity for those athletic dogs with a naturally strong drive for retrieving tennis balls.

We offer a beginning and an intermediate class in Flyball. After successful completion of the classes, the dog can join the team and participate in Tournaments. There are over 30 tournaments per year, that are with in a reasonable driving distance from Madison, located  in northern Illinois, the Minneapolis area, and Wisconsin. 

Our 15,000 square foot training facility provides the ultimate in accommodations for the Ulti-Mutts. The practice rooms are fully matted with 3/4 inch solid rubber. The racing lanes are arranged to provide a total running length of 160 feet. An adjacent room provides 3,000 square feet of crating space. The entire facility is fully heated and air conditioned.

NAFA SANCTIONED TOURNAMENTS AT MAD CITY DOG TRAINING
