He done me proud (agility demo)

Today was the DAY. Simon and Gar were doing agility demo at the Pet Expo. I was nervous and excited. Nervous because Simon can and will be unpredictable. Excited because we got to show off a sport I have come to love.

The day started of EARLY. We got up around 7ish and got showered and ready to go...Gar was bouncing off the walls. It was cold and windy and the walk into the building was nasty. I had Gar(how that happened I don't know) and he was pulling me all the way.

We got in there a little after 8:00 an d I took Simon and walked at a fast clip for over an hour. At one point Randy comes running and tells me Gar is loose. I see him, HE is looking for Simon. :roll:

Simon was not only good, he was great. The course was small, three jumps, the tunnel followed by the dog walk and another jump. I was worried he would go say Hi to the crowd but he was focused on me and I was so proud.

Gar was a whole nother story. Well, only partly. He did pretty well. After he jumped the fence into the crowd :D We got to run through three times and the third was the charm. On the last run he did great.

Fantastic!!! No wonder you are so proud. :D
And Gar was just working his audience, what a showman. :lol:
Woo hoo!
:clappurple: :clappurple: :clappurple:

Good job guys!!!!!

You should be proud.

BTW Fence jumping to get to the crowd requires a dog being agile. :wink:
Good job with the boys!

:D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

It sounds like you had a very good time. Were you there with a group?

Our Twin Cities Pet Expo is in March, but no agility. They do have dock dogs and frisbee (disc dog) demos as well as parade of breeds. Our basset rescue has had a booth there for the last 3 yrs and I'm excited that our OES club is going for the 1st time this year too. I will have to bring Chewie one day and Simon and Harley the other for equal time for each.... :lol:
Good Job! :clappurple: :yay:
Nice work!!!!!!!!!

Tell Randy Sybil has been known to jump ring gating :oops: :lol: :lol: 8) At least in practice. Usually to get to Sunny :wink:

Run-thru at the barn in Kansasville today at 12:30 for 20 & 24" jumping dogs. Gonna make it?

There are more coming up. WAG was great yesterday. They'll do it again in March.

Really sorry I missed the expo yesterday. You did good!!! 8)

Gar thought the fence was part of the course and the reward was all the pets. :lol: Silly boy just likes to show off.
