Tonight’s class was the best class in a long time (in other sports, you’d call what we do practice, but we call it class.<\/p>\n
Macy’s class is first, which is a bit of a cheat for Maggie, as she is a faster running, more of a distance dog. She prefers it is I move more but by the time I get to her….<\/p>\n
The other nice thing, is that both classes will have similar courses, but Maggie’s will be a bit more difficult. That can also be confusing and it was for Maggie’s first run.<\/p>\n
Macy has two real problems with agility — she is afraid of the teeter, and doesn’t like the chute. She has gotten caught in it during a storm, and she’s small, so who would blame her, plus she’s a bit claustophic. Thus, in descriminations, she always prefers the contact obstacles — plus they earm more cookies.<\/p>\n
She has developed a little leap off the end of teeter that I’m trying to get rid of, even is it is a tad cute. Never want to make a judge think and it can look like a flyoff — not a good thing — plus it could develop into a fly off.<\/p>\n
She did some really good work tonight. We’ve also got to do some backyard work on weaves and on stays. Mom has just been very lazy this summer (or I’ve been working hard and traveling a lot and haven’t had time — you pick).<\/p>\n
My biggest problem with Maggie is to convince I can run the whole course and she doesn’t have time to go sniff the grass, tree, or fence. It’s coming though.<\/p>\n
I’ve got the girls entered in 5 trials, 2 confirmed, and 3 entries out, and I’ll decided what to do after we compete in the first trial, we could go back to just Sundays, or withdraw from the trials and wait until January.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
