Who here is into dog agility?

BPT · 05-08-2009, 07:40 PM

I know there is someone here, I'll be damned if I cant remember his or her name though.

I am thinking of starting my toller on agility he is 3 and fairly well trained in terms of obedience, we work on it all the time and he responds well to commands at a distance. I am interested in trying us at agility and I dont know where to start. I am currently starting to research it online but I would like to get started right

There is a local lady who teaches it but I was thinking of getting started on my own first. Just to see if my dog enjoys it. He sure likes playing on the kiddy slide in the back yard so I am thinking he might.

It was me, but I kept falling off the beam...

I do 'doggie paddle' in the pool. Does that count?

I am a champion dog paddler myself but I dont think it counts. Try doing things like weaving through polls at a run that sort of thing

Does peanut butter have anything to do with this?

Yup, that is us. Well my wife does the agility and I take the photos. Any questions I can help with?
