I think the hurdles are scaled to the team height. That’s what if looks like in this ttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwVUGv605rc dachshunds versus retrievers.
The hurdles are scaled to the smallest dog on the team. Many flyball teams are all fast, driven dogs like border collies, with one small dog to get the hurdles low.

I’d never heard of this, but it looks like fun — for the dogs as well as the owners.

Or one dachshund – if you look at my second link, they’re really going for it.
