No. Not ANKC ones anyway.

The ones at our club don't.

From the ANKC rules:

6.2 Dog Walk

The Dog Walk consists of three (3) connected planks, one plank angled up from the ground to the end

of an elevated horizontal plank and the other angled from the other end, down to the ground and must

be a light and visible colour i.e. white or a pale colour. This obstacle must not have cleats fitted to the

planks.

The length of each plank shall be 3500 mm. The width shall be a minimum of 300 mm to a maximum

of 330 mm. The planks are to have a non-slip surface. The horizontal plank is to be set 1200 mm off

the ground. From the grounded end of the planks, there will be a contact area of 1100 mm painted a

different colour to the remainder of the obstacle. This contact area is to be painted on all visible sides.

ADAA does have cleats on the dogwalk, ANKC does not.
