Is it safe?Updated 2 months ago

SwiftPaws has built-in safety features - but the most important safety feature is YOU! 

Injuries can happen with any high-intensity sport (frisbee, dock diving, agility, lure coursing, etc.). 

It’s always good to be aware of the risk of any activity. 

  • Always seek the advice and recommendation from your pup's Veterinarian for any high-intensity activity for each individual pup before engaging in this type of activity.
  • SwiftPaws is NOT for young puppies who are still growing or seniors past their prime.
  • For setting up SwiftPaws we ask that you never make corners sharper than 90 degrees.
  • Always check your pup for any possible abrasion from the line (which can happen from the line whether the machine is running or not). 
  • Note: Some breeds are prone to pad tear injuries. These can be prevented by taping the paws before running - click here for an article on this
  • Ultimately, we believe you know your dog best and if you have concerns about your pup’s safety is always best to play it safe 😊
