Training The Contacts

8 June, 2010 (17:18) | Agility, Jet | By: Cynthia

Finally it’s warm enough to get out and do some training with Jet! He is such a good boy. I have an A-Frame at home and I have a teeter (it’s not balanced but oh well). And all that foundation 2o2o (2 on 2 off) training is really paying off. The teeter was just kinda [...]

Denver ASCA

7 June, 2010 (12:03) | Agility, Chase | By: Cynthia

Sorry I haven’t blogged in a while. Been out of town and out of sorts. I’ll try to get back into it more here. The weekend before last I took Chase to Denver, Colorado, and we did some ASCA agility there. I was really pleased about how we ran. Chase did awesome, and I did [...]

Getting Better

20 May, 2010 (09:17) | Angel | By: Cynthia

Well, I’m getting better, though it’s slow going. I was kinda manic yesterday, different than my depression I’ve had for the last week since we put Angel down. Jet makes me laugh, he is such a goof. This is him making play moves towards his new German Shepherd friend Lenka, who is not in the [...]

Very Sad

17 May, 2010 (20:11) | Agility, Angel, Chase | By: Cynthia

Well we are sad here, because Angel is gone, and I don’t really have much desire to blog lately. I went and did agility last weekend. It was okay, but my heart was so heavy on Saturday that I handled Chase very poorly. We got one half Q, which was good. Then on Sunday we [...]

Beginnings of Flyball and Agility Contacts

12 April, 2010 (17:32) | Agility, Flyball, Jet, Training | By: Cynthia

Took Jet out in the rain (it was just drizzling lol) and got some video of him doing the hop over the prop for flyball, and the contacts on the little contact trainer I have. I think he’s got some good foundation work, just gotta make it more solid. First the flyball. The idea is [...]

Agility Equipment Storage

10 April, 2010 (14:36) | Agility | By: Cynthia

So I finally managed to get around to buying a storage shed for my agility equipment. I don’t really have much, but I do have some nice weave poll bases that I want to keep in good shape over the years. And they just are not easily stored anywhere. My husband helped me put it [...]

Tatum Did Agility!

17 February, 2010 (09:45) | Agility, Tatum | By: Cynthia

Yay! Tatum did agility! I’m so excited! She did great! She exceeded all my expectations. I kept saying I didn’t really think she was ready, but I was wrong! She’s ready! Well, she’s still pretty darn slow, LOL, but I hope speed will come with time and confidence. I entered her in ASCA agility, prenovice, [...]

Picking A Venue

16 February, 2010 (11:41) | Agility, Chase | By: Cynthia

I took Chase to an ASCA Agility trial last weekend. It was three days, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I think Chase did really well. And I didn’t do too bad myself. I’ve been toying with the idea, lately, of picking a venue with Chase and pursuing a high level title. A Trial Championship. And ASCA [...]

Agility Weekend ASCA

12 February, 2010 (15:51) | Agility | By: Cynthia

Well we are gearing up for a three day ASCA trial this weekend. I hope to get some video. I MUST get video of Tatum! She’s in Pre-Novice and I’m now nervous about running her! It’ll be just for fun, I don’t think she’s ready really, but pre-novice will be pretty darn easy and it’ll [...]

Chase’s JWW Run

2 February, 2010 (10:18) | Agility, Chase | By: Cynthia

Here is Chase’s Jumpers with Weaves run from last weekend. He did good, a couple of mistakes… I think I need to invest in buying a good quality triple jump. He takes it out. And we don’t have one so we need to work it. It’s a good run. I wish Saturday would have gone [...]
