Old English Sheep Dogs and Agility

I was talking to our agility trainer tonight, letting her know how much I really want to give Frankie a chance to excel in this sport.
She was telling me that a friend was asking her what kind of dogs she has in her class this time around. Oh she says some mix breeds, a Pom, a maltese, a Golden, a Golden Doodle, and Oh Yeah. An Old English. Her friend says in Agility you have to be kidding me :roll:

I quickly jumped in and said WAIT ONE MINUTE, I KNOW ALOT OF OES'S THAT HAVE DONE VERY VERY WELL IN AGILITY.
People really don't know the breed. Do They?

Many people have run into that "breed prejudice" issue. :(
Like OES are the dumb blondes of the dog world or something. :evil:

We are the 1st OES in our area doing competition sports.
Personally, I don't see much of it, as Chewie and I have done a good campaign job on them :wink: ...totally setting the stage in a good way for future OES in our area! :high5:
We really lucked out.
Oh, pay no attention. It's because there are so few of them out there.

Join our plan for Total World OES Performance Domination and help clear up this misconception ;-)
