Thanks everyone! [

Sorry for being out of it, but what were you guys competing in?
Nah, you're not out of it... She isn't in competition yet, this was for her brevet in obedience at our dog club.
It was never my intention to go competition when i began our training... I just wanted to ensure good manners and a well behaved girl, keep her challenged, etc... Then move on to agility.
We recently have been able to add in about a 10 minutes run through of some of the agility obstacles after her obedience classes.. However, now I am on the fence. Chinook does so well in obedience, and truly seems to enjoy it. I would say for her breed, she is rather low keyed. We work very well together and she has proven to be quite intuned to my slighest move and reall wants to please. The club has taken to calling her "Le Petit Champion." And they are trying to pursuade me to go onto St. Hubert and compete. We'll see, she'll be six months this week. So I still have plenty of time to think and work up to that level of training.
I do not know how different things are over here, or how they compare to the AKC or the CKC. This is my first foray into formal training.
Probably more info then you cared for, huh? [

I see you are from GA ...We went to a Frisbee clinic up in the northern part of Belgium a few weeks back and the man who instructed it flew over from Atlanta. They make the Hyperflite Discs and he and his partner were both previous World Champs. We had a ball! And I learned how to throw the frisbee in some pretty cool ways!!!
Okay, okay..I'll be quiet now. I think i have had too much caffine today
