hello dog sport fans!  sorry i haven’t posted in a while….i haven’t had class.  last night was my first agility 101 class.  it was very fun and mom says i did really well.

my classmates are:

jett:  he is a small basenji that was in my last class, too.  he is VERY good at agility and of all the dogs in class, i like him the most.  he doesn’t scare me like the other dogs do. jett’s personal assistant is a really nice guy.

ernie: a corgi mix (i think) puppy who is ultra fast and who hates jett.  actually, i think he hates me, too.  he barks at me, but mom won’t let me near him.  she’s afraid i will eat him if he barks at me.  he can jump things twice as tall as he is!

rubay: a yellow lab mix.  she is the biggest dog in class but she is really good at everything, especially jumping.

trixie: my teacher says trixie is a “high strung” aussie.  that sounds painful.  i don’t know what it means, but i do know the teacher told mommy not to get to close to her.

missy:  “missy come”  “missy come”  all i know about this dog is her personal assistant said “missy come” about 2000 times last night, and at no time did missy actually come.  and she kept taking my treats the teacher put on the equipment for me!  i forgave her, as there seems to be a bottomless treat bag strapped to everyone’s waste in this class.

TREATS ARE EVERYWHERE!  when the handlers run, treats pop out of their bags.  they’re on the equipment, under the equipment, at the starts and finishes of equipment.  you get them for being good, you get them for choosing not to be bad.

good treats, too.  cheese or beefy bites. sometimes chicken.

i highly recommend my dogblog friends take agility class!
