Okay, I’m pretty nervous. I hope I can sleep tonight. LOL. The funny thing is, Levi’s first agility trial was in February too. I think it was 2005… but actually I think it was 2004. I’ll have to check. I was so nervous I was in the bathroom half the trial! I did volunteer to work it though, even my first trial. It was fun. Now, six years later, I’m starting Jet. It’s an ASCA trial and he’s fully entered.… Continue reading
Well, this weekend should be fun! It’s Jet’s first agility trial ever! He’s fully entered into an ASCA agility trial. Both Saturday and Sunday. Usually I’ll put a new dog in for just a couple of runs. But he’s doing so well in training, and has so much energy, that I fully entered him. Six runs a day both days. I sure hope he’s tired when we get home! When he’s tired, he’s less likely to get the bathroom rugs… Continue reading
She did it! My sweet Tatum collie girl did two agility runs in AKC agility today and she qualified both times! I am thrilled! I want to go do more agility with her now. But it’s okay that we only entered one day. This evening she has crashed on her favorite comfy bed and hasn’t moved since dinner. It’s a lot of work for a rescue collie girl with a hundred issues! This was Tatum’s first run. She can go… Continue reading
Well as this is posted I’m up running Tatum in agility! I just wanted to post this cute picture of Tatum and her friend Sonny. Sonny lives up north of us and we haven’t seen him in a while, but he’s a very handsome smooth sable collie boy! Tatum really liked him. I hope to post again tonight, maybe with some videos of Tatum. I don’t know who I’ll get to ask to video, but hopefully someone. Gotta have some… Continue reading
Yup, it’s Tatum’s big day. She entered in her first real AKC agility trial. She’s done ASCA before, but For Exhibition Only, which means she can jump 4 inches lower but not get any Qs. She’s also done an AKC trial before but it was just FAST. And she was nervous and FAST won’t really be her thing. Tomorrow she’s in an AKC trial and he’s in Standard and Jumpers. Novice in both. I think she’ll do great! I know… Continue reading
Yup Tatum is going to be in an AKC trial this weekend. Just for one day, on Friday. She gets so nervous at new places, I’ve been able to take her to this place we are trialing in 3 times now. They have had an open practice day and it’s been so nice! Each time I took her up, she got better and better. I am not taking her this week, but I hope that 3 times was good enough… Continue reading
My first agility was Levi, and he did a great job for me. He gave me his all and we had a really great time. He’s retired now but he’s still my heart dog. He was always a bit slow and he always had weave problems… so I tried him out, and he was just a little bit too soft. Chase was my second agility dog. He also gave me his all but he is so fast that I can’t… Continue reading
So! It’s a plan! I am going to enter Jet in his first real official agility trial next February. I’m not sure what trial yet, as he may have a couple of options. Might not. We’ll see, and time will tell. I have a preference but I’m not going to reveal our plans quite yet. But I think he’s ready. He’s weaving a good solid 12 weave polls. His contacts are great, he’s got a good solid 2o2o on the… Continue reading
