Adjustable PVC Teeter By Charmaine Tong-Kaufman , photos by author This simple adjustable teeter is for handlers introducing their dog to the teeter for the first time or for dogs that need daily training to get over their teeter fear. You can adjust it to three different heights as shown in Figures 1-3, it can be built in one weekend, and all materials can be bought at your local building supply store. Please note that this teeter is not competition height and I have only used it for training small- to medium-sized dogs.
