Agility

Roxy and have completed our 3rd class in level 1 agility training. What fun. Roxy seems to really enjoy the activity. Our homework is going well with the sit and down stays, the walking and waiting, the touch exercises, and the quick downs. We were having difficulty with her walking on my right but I think we are getting past that now. One a problem we are trying to work out is walking the board, at the end of the board, Roxy turns toward me and her butt goes off the board. Maybe I need to stand at the end of the board so I'm facing her as she reaches the target area. We went to a CPE agility competition in Chula Vista today and observed our friend Marie and her dog Kendall run some of the trials. Marie knows what she's doing and Kendall looks great, what a beautiful animal! Looks like fun. I think we'll continue with the lessons and give it a try. We were also invited to check out fly ball with the team Fast Forward Fly ball, we may visit them on Wednesday night and see what their lessons and practice are like.
