Meet Viewlands Strike-me its "Atlas", aka Little man / Troublemaker- our October/November dog of the month!
Atlas has been doing agility since he was a wee man (tee hee, pun intended). Atlas's human was looking for something fun to do together and coincidentally was constantly getting agility videos of Maisy & other extraordinary CCATS club members sent to her :-) so she decided to check it out to further strengthen their bond. Now you'll see them regularly at club sharpening and sharing their skills.
Atlas loves wing jumps and working those challenging weaves for treats and other rewards. His biggest agility goal is gaining ground – to be able to get a little distance between Mum & I while running a course – maybe it's the promise of his favourite food, fresh cooked fish or a bully stick. His confidence has grown for sure and his biggest accomplishment in agility so far is conquering the A-frame. It's a very large obstacle for such a tiny little man.
When he's not doing agility, his favourite place to be is in mum's arms, napping on her lap any which way up or relaxing in a sunny spot. In fact, we hear his secret talent is sleeping and snoring like a freight train!! He also "convinced" mum to let him sleep on the bed when he was only 4 months old and has been there ever since. Yup, he's a charmer alright and a wonderful member of our CCATS family.
