New Schedule for October

A Level 2 has been added.
With the dogs interested, this is a schedule I could come up with that seemed to work best.
Whatever space that is still available can still be filled, but I will not be adding any more new classes. If you are still wanting to join, please contact Trish first to see if there is any room available in the class you want. The next classes will start in January!

I saw an online class for working on STAY, and thought I'd share the link...
https://chasingthetaleacademy.com/solid-startline-stay/

Stay isn't something we spend a lot of time working on in class, but it can be HUGELY valuable for you to work on at home (and then also work in class). It takes quite a bit of time to train a good solid STAY.

This is ONE IDEA of how you could practice agility at home (especially during the upcoming winter).

Master your dog’s startline stay in 3 steps, 5 minutes a day! From improving trust and handling distractions to elevating your handler performance, our proven methods bridge the gap between training and competition.

Trying to get caught up on make up lessons. I will offer some times on Tuesday Sept 30th in the afternoon. If that doesn’t work for you, please email me to try to arrange something else. Some classes have room to add, but some levels don’t have room for extras.
(You are allowed one free make up class per set of outdoor lessons).

What is AGILITY to you?

Agility to me is an interesting and challenging sport. I love that all types of people and all types of dogs can do it! I love that there is always so much to learn and practice. I love being able to learn to communicate with my dogs and see improvement. I love that it makes me want to be active.

I am passionate about agility and want to share knowledge and experience of agility with others. I love seeing students of all types have success in their learning! I love seeing shy, scared or worried dogs become more confident and happy! I love people learning how to do things that are hard and they previously thought they couldn't do. I love seeing them become interested in learning more about the sport that I love!

These are just a few aspects of agility that I love....

What is agility to you? Why do you come to class?

Some new improvements…. Our competition ring grass has been relandscaped and the grass is coming in nicely!!! We have added some new shade structures and Dan made a beautiful new plantar box that can be filled with flowers next year. We are always looking for ways to improve our business and make the experience better for our valued clients and dogs!

We recently got a new 10 ft tunnel and next we will be working on revamping our indoor dividers!

We also have 3 cute 🐈‍⬛.

Pictures of my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - Kipper from Ashley Woodvine Photography from our June trial! (I had to pick her up on course once cause she needed to to go the bathroom and I was taking her out. Her expressions are so funny though!)
