PRE-REQUISITES: None

Earn your Doglympics Series “Balance Beam” title by demonstrating any 10 tricks utilizing a balance beam. This title challenges you to think about what behaviors your dog CAN do, and then transfer those behaviors to a new trick involving a balance beam. A Canine Conditioning Fitness Coach (CCFC) will evaluate your submission. What constitutes a Balance Beam? A balance beam can be a board, a park bench, or a fallen tree. It must be long, narrow, and elevated.

Some examples of balance beam tricks are:

  1. Walk a balance beam (such as a raised board)
  2. Walk a ramp
  3. Teeter totter
  4. Double-rail balance beam
  5. Skinny balance beam
  6. Mount a balance beam from the middle of the beam
  7. Lift a paw while on a beam
