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 [...]

Well I sent in the entry for the DOCNA agility trial.. and I entered Tatum. She’ll be in ASCA this month, but only in pre-novice because I can’t chose to jump her at 16″ unless she’s in veterans. That bugs me. I won’t jump her 20″. So DOCNA will be our first real venue…
I [...]

Yup, he finally got a Q in AKC! Hehe… he’s been in Excellent for a while now, maybe even a year… I forget, it’s too depressing to keep close track. We have a hard time in excellent in AKC with the twisty courses. But we got a Q, so maybe we actually [...]

So, there’s an AKC agility trial this weekend that I’ve entered Chase in. We’ll see if all our work with Stacey has paid off! One thing I learned was… you do not have to be in perfect position to start signaling a front cross. But we need front cross work because I’m always behind Chase, [...]

So I did it, I entered Tatum in pre-novice agility in ASCA for February! I’m excited. I don’t think she’s really ready, she still goes around jumps once in a while. And she doesn’t know the weaves yet but there are no weaves in Pre-Novice. There is no teeter, either. I do want [...]

One of the things I don’t have any faith in whatsoever in agility is retraining contacts.
I realize that sometimes you start training them one way and it doesn’t really work out for that dog, so you think maybe it’d be better to train another way. Or else maybe you start out with a Four on [...]

I’ve been working on a touch board, teaching Jet the Two On Two Off for agility contacts. He is doing very well. This video spans about five days of short training sessions. It’s about 10 minutes long so you don’t have to watch it all… or at all, if you don’t want. [...]

So it’s been a nice lazy weekend so far. I went and did some agility training last Friday with Tatum. Brought Jet along too for some crate games and recalls and fun. He rolled in the dirt and got nice and brown, of course.
Tatum did really well. She likes 12″ jumps [...]

Well this isn’t a picture of Chase, it’s a picture of super cute Jet… LOL but Jet makes me happy! Okay Chase makes me happy too but he’s not a wiggly cute puppy anymore.
Anyway so Chase got 2 Qs this weekend out of 12 runs. I’ve been told (since my [...]

Did ASCA agility today with Chase. Dragged my body out of my sick bed. Ugh. We had fun though. I still want a higher Q rate. Out of six runs he only got one Q. Fortunately that was in Standard Novice and he needed that for his title. So I’m glad he got it.
Here’s one [...]
