What a nice flower you are! And the corgi is absolutely stunning

Heading out tomorrow to be course builder for the weekend agility trial. And for every weekend in February, too. Probably March too, but not looking ahead that far.

I'll be running my veteran agility sheltie, 11 years old and still beating the competition. Already has a MACH several times over, and currently working on her PACH. Wish I would have finished her in the breed ring, but she needed to be spayed since she was coming in season every four months instead of every six!

She is so beautiful!! So cool that she's doing so well in agility!

My corgi's breeder has an agility barn- each agility picture that I see pushes me closer to caving and trying it with Finn

I'm sitting here being jealous Hoping that once I'd get to actually compete in agility

You can train at home- PVC is super cheap and you can make jumps and weaves out if it, and I've seen some people make mini dog walks and teeters!

I did... But I'd like to compete


I had wooden jumps... Thought I never tried weaving. Have to try that with Lexie. She's still young and eager to learn

Yeah....train at home, then enter a competition

Don't weave before they're fully grown, bad for their joints
look up agility foundation exercises

Thanks! I was not thinking about doing it straight away. She has to learn the basics first

Important foundations are impulse control and remote commands, and you can teach different types of crosses and stuff

I'm going to a dog show this weekend! I'll be sure to take lots of pics.
