Nope, you can do whatever you want. It just has to have strawberries.

Is that a dog agility hurdle the pup is hanging over? If so, teach a chicken to "jump." Doesn't need to be as high as the top pole in photo; even a pole laid on the ground will do just fine, as long as the chicken actuallly jumps (not walks) over the pole.

make some sort of toy for your chickens (it can be as simple as fruit hanging on a string or something) and take a pic of them playing with it

If possible take a picture of birds, (Ducks, geese, chickens etc.) enjoying water.

Yeah, the one in the picture has trouble figuring it out, although his brother is really good at it.
I built it from PVC pipes. I’ll definitely try it with a chicken!

Have you ever taken dog agility training classes and/or competed in dog agility?

The top pole of the jump may be the dog's eventual competition height, but it is much too high for a typical beginner dog. 4 inches off the ground is sufficient for a beginner dog his size. Also, put him on leash. Then you step over the bar with him in a "Sit"/"Stay." (Have someone hold his collar if he doesn't know those commands.) His watching you step over the hurdle will help give him visual understanding, as will the leash connecting him, the jump, and you on the other side. Have a tasty treat ready to reward him for his sucess. Then command him to "Jump! If he still balks at the very low pole, it's still too high for him to gain confidence. Lower it some more until he gains confidence and understanding.

Now I will amend my initial post to challenge you to teach your dog in the photo And a chicken to jump. You can do it!
