This popup keeps tracks of how many faults your Sim’s pet accumulates while doing the course. When a Sim commands a pet to run the obstacle course, an event popup will appear in the top left corner of the screen. The obstacle course is another great way to continue building the Pet Training skill if a dog has already learned all other commands.
She has Pongo run the obstacle course in order to keep building her skill. Pongo has already learned every trick he can, but Skye isn’t a master of Pet Training quite yet. A pet’s performance on the obstacle course is dependent on their owner’s Pet Training skill level. Commanding a pet to run the obstacle course builds the Pet Training skill. Sims can command their pets to use one specific piece of the course or they can ask their pets to run the entire course. The obstacle course comes in several pieces, but the individual pieces can be connected to each other with strategic placement in Build/Buy to create a customised, seamless course.
Obstacle course pieces can also be purchased and placed on other lots in Build/Buy. There are no official pet shows or competitions in The Sims 4: Cats & Dogs, but the dog park in Brindleton Bay has an obstacle course.
