Thanks Amanda!

This morning it started snowing just before the run thrus. The Agility ring is over the hills and out in the middle of nowhere. Tuck and I were running late but when we got there, we were the first to arrive.

We ended up with 9 dogs and interestingly, 5 junior handlers! And we had a blast.

Tucker did really well. We had a novice and expert course set up, we stuck to the novice course. I managed to remember the course, Tuck did great w/ all obstacles including weave poles, and all the Junior handlers had to love on him. So a good time was had by all!

What was reallyy great was talking to some of the advanced handlers. One man seemed willing to chat and he had tought his 2 border collies "duck". A great idea for Tuck and Lu.

I had a chance to chat more w/ my instructor and she suggested Tucker start competing. Apparently the basic level doesn't require teeters or weave poles. Teeters are not a problems but no way are we ready for weave poles.

So our training center had a trial in March and I think we will enter but I really want to find run thrus at other sites to get him used to other locations.

But tons of fun!
