Let the Training Commence

We have just returned from a 2 day PACE seminar. It has been a thought provoking, interesting couple of days and a seminar that I would highly recommend for anyone at any level in agility. For more details check out www.PACE-agility.org

Here is Chi trying out one of the excersises we did and not to be upstaged by the little super star the handler decided to dress brightly!

Agility 4 U son!


FB came to class and started his exposure to agility. Here we see Chi teaching and explaining to his son the perfect foot positioning for the contacts. The next shot would have been Chi with his head on his legs but FB's curiosity took him too close and Chi thought FB was going to give him a girlie kiss so pulled away!

Swimming!


After training with Lesley Olden the other day we went swimming. Bernadette took Zen for the 1st time and Chi went for his 2nd official swim. He sometimes swims round my legs 'down the Brooks' but isn't the keenest of swimmers. When I first took him I was worried his heavy fluffy coat would weigh him down but he has a powerfull little body under all that fur and once he got into his stroke he was well away. The pully system you see attached was very usefull in keeping him in the right direction and not splashing all over the place. Towards the end of the session he was of pully and soloing - woot!
