Dan and Smedley

Here is Dan and Smedley working the Wednesday course.. This is our newest team to the competition side of agility... The team has been attending classes a little over a year now.. Entering their first trial last month..  Going 1 for 4 Dan felt disappointed but the group saw a lot of potential in the team.. with another just around the corner I am sure we will see a lot of progress.  Here is Team Smedley working the Wednesday course..

Practice Contacts...

Here are Colleen and Cooper practicing contacts.. On both the High Walk and A frame Colleen make sure Cooper gets a full contact hit..  Cooper tried to cut the contact short but colleen with a watchful eye kept him on task...

Practice with Colleen and Cooper

Colleen and Cooper

Here is Colleen and Cooper doing the Wednesday course.

Colleen has struggled lately with contacts so she is being extra careful that Mr. Cooper hits them.

Practice

Ruth and Kerrie

At the end of class Wednesday the students all ran the full course.. The biggest problem occurred at the tunnel to weave poles.. First the dogs had to avoid taking the off course jump coming out of the tunnel and then they had to navigate a difficult weave entrance... The night had a lot of frustrating moments but practice worked it all out... Here Kerrie and Ruth successfully put it together...
