Roscoe is an agility star!

• Roscoe is an agility star! jensw Posted : 6/27/2006 11:04:38 PM Well, a star-in-the-making! Third class tonight, and Roscoe is doing so well. I am shocked at how much he likes it and how well he is doing. He's no border collie or aussie (let's just say that teaching the dogs to slow down a bit and be careful is not all that necessary in his case ), but he has no fear of the obstacles, knows what he is supposed to do with each of them, and really seems to enjoy it (which is the only reason we're doing it, for his enjoyment)! He even took his focus off the sheep across the street to focus on the tunnel when I told him to. So much fun for dog and handler! I highly recommend it to anyone thinking about it.  Even if you're not going to compete seriously, it's just fun to take a class.

• miranadobe Posted : 6/27/2006 11:47:01 PM Cool for Roscoe to have his fun/special thing to do!  Sounds like getting rewarded with gymnastics or dance class as a little kid.  We don't expect the Olympics, but its fun and they're learning new things, gaining new confidences, learning how to move/use their bodies differently. (He's such a beauty, he could be doing Garbage-Truck-Chasing classes and I'd still think he was terrific!) 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Xebby Posted : 6/28/2006 12:53:12 AM Sounds like so much fun. I'm working on getting my Gizmo to agility training but she still has a few more months of obedience before she can start the agility class. Can't wate! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• jensw Posted : 6/28/2006 12:37:17 PM ORIGINAL: jennie_c_d I feel cheated. Where are my photos?   You guys are funny... how exactly am I supposed to take a photo when I'm directing Roscoe to go through the tunnel, running madly to the other side and hoping desperately not to trip on myself, and then throwing a little party when he comes out the other side? [sm=lame.gif]   I'll see if hubby can do the honors at the next class (not for two weeks 'cause of 4th of July [:'(]).  [] 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• diane303 Posted : 6/28/2006 12:44:27 PM I had my DH come to take photos and Miss Trudy Blue (my setter) was more interested in the fact that Daddy with there!  It was hard to get her to pay attention to the tasks at hand []. My instructor told him that when he comes to watch her at an agility trial, he will have to wear a hat, a fake nose and glasses! teehee. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
