The rings are side by side with wide aisles in between and along one side. Walls are along the other 2 sides.
Cow/sheep fencing runs along two sides with entry and exit gates.
One of the warm-up jumps is right next to the back of one of the rings, which could cause a considerable distraction if it is being used during a run.

Viewing Area

There are several options for viewing the agility rings. Although the bleachers are pushed in to make way for crating, you can watch:
- From your crating area if it doesn’t get too busy (the ultimate!)
- Set up chairs on the crating side of the aisle between the ring gating and crating
- From a room, behind large windows. To access this room, look for a hallway with several steps going up. The room is at the top of those steps
