Obedience And Agility…Day Three Hundred, Forty Five

November 10, 2011 By Jodi

Tonight at the half-way mark of our drop-in obedience class, Sara took out some agility equipment.

The A-Frame, See-Saw and Dog Walk.

My favorite little lab mix Zoe was there and I have been itching to get Zoe on the agility equipment to see if we can help her and her mom Marcie, gain some confidence.

I offered to try Zoe on the Dog Walk, I used a treat and up she went, like she was an old pro! She was just as good on the A-Frame, in fact the only equipment she was hesitant on was the See-Saw, she went on it well enough, she just wasn’t expecting the quick drop once she reached the top.

You may remember Maggie from an earlier post where we worked on getting her through the tunnel, this time we used the treats to get her up and over the dog walk.Β  She did fantastic!

Sampson did the A-Frame and the Dog Walk, but he really doesn’t care for the See-Saw, Delilah of course LOVES the agility and will do just about anything for a speck of food as evidenced in the photo below.

    That looks like so much fun. I will have to try to find a place like that for Lila and me.

      I’m not sure I would ever want the pressure of competition, but I love the just for fun stuff. She is really good at it and it helps her focus, plus I think it makes our bond stronger. πŸ™‚ I hope you find a place, you will have to let me know what you think.

    Sounds like fun. Delilah looks so cute. πŸ™‚

    Thunder got to play on agility equipment a long time ago when he was in puppy school. I don’t think Storm ever has. If I were to guess, I would think Storm would like it, but who knows? Just not enough time to do it all…

      It’s not for every dog, I can guarantee if I was doing with my dogs what you do with yours, I certainly wouldn’t be doing agility! LOL

      You must live in Sticksville Frankie! You should always do everything just for fun. You must be having fun with Ernest, aren’t you?

    Looks and sounds like fun! Bailey doesn’t care for the teeter either, which is part of the reasons why we do NADAC. πŸ™‚

      What is NADAC? I’m a firm believer in not forcing them to do anything they don’t want to. But encouraging kindly. If they try it and don’t like it, I’m fine with that!
