Tip Tail

Well at long last I finally took Chase out for some agility training. It’s been quite a long time since we have done agility.. I think the beginning of September.  Got too busy with the cruise and obedience and flyball.
Chase does awesome.  My friend and trainer is pretty impressed how good he can be [...]

This is from October of last year when we were in Nevada for flyball and agility. Levi has his Halloween costume on… aka the orange on his tail. Chase is running amok in the distance, as is usual for him.

So Muffit and Chase are pretty lucky boys. Not only do they get a Gotcha Day each, they also get a birthday. It’s a made-up birthday for the dog sports they are in. We usually celebrate both… and this one was the Made-Up-Birthday-Day on September 21!
They didn’t get any Vegas vacations this year… though Chase [...]

Well, we’ve been at the AKC agility trial this weekend in Farmington, Utah. Unfortunately Levi isn’t feeling well. He not only isn’t doing the weaves, he also isn’t doing contacts or even the chute. So I think he’s not feeling well and I’m going to leave him home tomorrow so he can rest [...]

This weekend we have an AKC agility trial. Three days… Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Levi is only entered in Standard each day. We’ve been thinking that maybe two runs, or three runs, a day, is too much for him to weave. Gah, that sounds silly. He is in good shape and would [...]

I recruited someone to take these pictures of Chase while I was running him. I don’t like to bug people but I do like to have some pictures! And I had the camera on Manual and I forgot to decrease the ISO setting so they are much too grainy. I need to get some software [...]

Today was a much better agility day with Chase my border collie boy. He did well. I was less stressed because I didn’t have someone else who was counting on us. Instead it was just us for us and that’s a good thing.
Here are a couple of pictures of my [...]
