Progress Report on Dog Agility

Ammo practices Dog Agility on his DIY Agility Jumps 2012As you probably know, I’ve been taking weekly agility training classes since last spring. I’ve come pretty far in my training, but I still have lots to learn until I’m ready to compete.

Last week I had a visitor at class…..which means I have video proof that I’m an agility dog! Yay!

This week I decided that the teeter totter was a bit scary – I mean do you really blame me, that thing catapults you into the sky! But mom helped me get through my fears, and hopefully I’ll be back to darting across it at super hero speed just like I had been doing for the past several months.

Anyone else taking dog agility classes? What’s your favorite obstacle? Mine is the A-frame! Ammo the Dachshund

    Wow! I’d love to sign my dogs up for agility, that looks like great exercise for your body and mind AND just plain fun.

      It’s great fun and I look forward to going to class every week! And it’s great for keeping your middle fit & trim!

    Hey Ammo. I take agility too. My favorite is the teeter. I like agility a lot but I hate being in my crate during class. How do you keep quite during class? .

      Oh the dreaded crate! I’m the same….who wants to be in a crate when you could be running the course and getting cookies? I bark and cry some when I’m in there but mom has been trying to reward me for good behavior…but it’s definitely a challenge.

    Good job Ammo..Kate was very nervous on the teeter too..we learned to make a game out of the “bang”..fletcher on the other hand enjoys giving me a heart attack as he flies up the teeter and puts on the brakes at the last second..lol

      Normally I love flying up and down the teeter, but last class there was something a little different about it. I’m sure I’ll be back to flying in no time though. Super heroes are brave like that.
