Progress Report on Dog Agility

Posted on January 24, 2013 by Ammo

As you probably know, I’ve been taking weekly agility training classes since last spring. I’ve come pretty far in my training, but I still have lots to learn until I’m ready to compete.

Last week I had a visitor at class…..which means I have video proof that I’m an agility dog! Yay!

This week I decided that the teeter totter was a bit scary – I mean do you really blame me, that thing catapults you into the sky! But mom helped me get through my fears, and hopefully I’ll be back to darting across it at super hero speed just like I had been doing for the past several months.

Anyone else taking dog agility classes? What’s your favorite obstacle? Mine is the A-frame!

Construction on the Farm

The construction on Trooper’s new house at the farm has really been moving along pretty quickly. Every time I come there is something new to look at.

I was admiring the handiwork from afar, when I decided, what the hey – lets go check it out!

Up close Trooper’s new house looked solid enough.

But with these big empty rooms, there is really only one way to know for sure if it’s going to hold up to the rigors of me and Trooper’s wrestle parties.

Time to fly!

Lucky for Trooper I’m such a good friend that I tested out and approved his new home for endless bounding. It gets my stamp of approval for wrestle parties too…..although we may want to add some carpeting.

I can’t wait until Trooper’s new house is ready! I’ve already staked out a few looking windows that have a straight line shot to viewing my groundhog holes – I have my paws crossed the construction workers don’t forget to add a doggie door. I hope Trooper lets me sleepover all the time!
