I have not. I did SEE it when the owners of a little Staffie I helped with for her CGC last year wanted to take her on to more training because she was just so smart and biddable....
So they got her ILP (I guess it's called something else now: Purebred Alternative Listing) and started Rally-O. That whole family is into it now, and this was their first dog! Never mind their first dog SPORT..... :>
From what I saw in a few short hours, I'd say yes, it IS awesome. :>
yea the play pen is great. i got mine at a national petshop for around 80 bucks. they can see through it if you happen to be in the same room, they can walk around, easy to put water out, etc. I would suggest setting it up somewhere you dont care about the floor...the model i got, while it cant be tipped over, the "walls" can certaintly be pushed around and made into new geometric shapes by the dog....would quickly scratch hardwood floors.
makes cooking dinner easier!

Thankfully no dogs are allowed in my kitchen, ever! we usually gate them into the hallway so they can watch me but not come in and beg and scavenge and get under foot.
The biggest issue when i am at home is when i need to sweep and mop, which can happen several times a day right now
but its impossible to do with someone "hunting and killing" the broom or mop the entire time.
Our wood floors are not in very good shape, 120 years old and need to be resealed.
With this being our third puppy in three years we will be doing some home re-beautifying once he is grown.
Dear Caleb: I plan on putting my two dogs into agility training as well. Bindi is over a year, but we have only had her since July and I want to obediance train her first. I also have another little terrior, Cody and he may enjoy agility as well.
Its good to meet you and I know you will be totally blessed by the forum and all the help you will get.
God bless you
