Static platforms

Low wide wooden board for paw-placement awareness — sized to give the dog enough surface to land each paw deliberately without frustration. Built straight from a single piece of dimensional lumber laid flat on the ground: 1×4 (about 1.9 cm tall) for small dogs, 2×4 (about 3.8 cm tall) for medium and larger. The bar IS the lumber — no riser, no stack. Used as an early-stage narrow-surface alternative to the place board, and for paw-targeting and side-step warm-ups. Default length is around 50 cm; build to within ±5 cm. Distinct from the balance bench, which is longer and intended for sustained four-feet-on walking.
