The lanes have to be at least 12 feet apart at tourneys.
At practice, you do what you can. Our old facility...we were less than 3' apart...(but our dogs never had crossing over issues-they were so used to seeing the other dog close by!
) Our new facility, they're pretty close...but there is stuff down the middle (table, A-frame, etc).
Where did you take classes before? The facility that Fur In A Blur used for their tournament was really nice...their practice set up would be nice (I don't know if that's where they practice). But it was far for you...wasn't it?
Nevermind!
