Back at it....

Today was such a great day we are back at the agility. I found it hard myself working the two dogs they are very very different.

 Spencer he is such a great dog but something has changed in him where he is actually excited to be doing what we are doing with him, its great to see that. He has now become my top agility dog for now. Just because he runs so smooth and likes the contacts equipment like the dog walk and the A frame. Counldnt beleve how happy he was running around my trainers basement. We were working on jump tunnel jump which are 2 things he so hates but we loving it today!!! We also started doing the reminder about the tire jump. Since we found out his legs are good to go and no slipping patellas ( not to sure if thats how you spell it!) we are good to push him a bit more. He has come such a long way both me and my trainer are so proud of him. We have also started training him more in the dumb bells and that will hopefully lead to scent hurdle racing.

 Abby is doing great too she is very fast and its hard for me to keep up most of the time we are working more and more on leaving her in a sit stay till Im ready and ahead of her enough. For a beginning trainer its very difficult for me but its great to be challenged she is so intense in the agility and loves the equipment minus one that we have worked on.... the dogwalk. We hopefully we get to the weavepoles and the seesaw this summer but she is very young to even enter in any events yet. She really had to use her brain and it tires her out which is a sucessful class. We are also working the dumb bells with her as well but she likes to through toys and it actually hit me today those things are hard man!!!!! My trainer thinks she will pass Spencer in this very quickly she has a huge drive.

IM SO PROUD OF MY KIDS!!!!
