Since I have a lot of “jobs” (shop greeter, artist, guard dog, farm dog, sidekick, super hero….) sometimes it’s nice to enjoy a few extra curricular activities at the end of the day. One of my favorites right now is agility class.
I still have a lot of training to do before I’m ready to compete, but right now I’m just having a lot of fun! Just see for yourself….
P.S. I like Tunnels about as much as this boy likes Turtles. 🙂
On Tuesday evenings I attend two dog training classes. First I make my way to class at the Dog Training Center of Chester County where I’m learning to be a Canine Good Citizen and Therapy Dog. Then it’s off to Wagsworth Manor where I’m in the Intermediate Agility Class.
This week there was a big storm rolling in when mom and I pulled up to Wagsworth Manor, so instead of running around outside like normal we headed inside. I was kind of unsure about the whole situation, considering there was thunder and lightning, strange barking dogs, and a whole new environment to contend with. But soon I was put to ease, because my dad was waiting there to watch me get my Agility on!
Mom says I have to work on paying attention better, even when there are distractions, but how can you not be excited when your Dad comes to watch!? 
Yesterday I started my beginner agility class at Wagsworth Manor. So, knowing that I would need to get in shape beforehand, over the weekend I broke out my super cape to help me get the party started.
There is something about that little piece of fabric – that just makes you want to fly!
…and fly….
….and fly….
…and fly some more!
And it’s a good thing I did all that flying beforehand…..
…because this is all my classmates saw on my first day of agility class as I soured over the jumps, sped through the weaving poles, and dashed through the tunnel! I can’t wait until next week’s class!Â
