So I've been watching a lot of YouTube videos of people in the UK who put their rabbits through agility courses. This looks like a lot of fun for the buns and great way to bond. Anyone know where I can I find some of the equipment? It looks easy enough to make, but I don't know what size/height/width to make the jumps. There's a lot of small dog agility equipment out there and rat ones too, but if there's a rabbit specification I'd much rather know about it!  Jump jump!

I love those videos too! People I know have talked about trying it, but no ones actually done it. The buns I have that would probably be half decent at it or older, so i'm not sure how well it's work out for me trying.

Those bar jumps are just bits of plastic plumbing! Reckon those could be had much cheaper down your local "Home Depot" or B&Q here in blighty.

This site has some great instructions. The jumps are for dogs, but you can just buy smaller and thinner PVC pipes for bunnies. I like that it's easy to assemble without tools and it's already white, so not much painting to do.

I have seen people selling 'weave poles' and 'agility jumps' on craigs list here, and all they are is PVC tubing stuck together. Seems to be the way to go.
