Dakota's first agility run

Dakota's first Agility Q, in Standard!  This was taken last spring.
She's still very green here, but so happy and willing to work.  I love her attitude.


So far in 2014

Hello again!  Sorry I've dropped the ball on posting again.  We've been busy!

Teddy and I finished his Rally Advanced Excellent title earlier this year - this is the highest title available in AKC Rally, and requires that the dog qualify in BOTH the Advanced B AND Excellent B classes, at the same trial (same day) for one  leg... and you need 10 legs for the title!  So that's 20 Rally courses and 20 qualifying runs.  Teddy did it perfectly, with some very nice scores.

Also, Dakota and I have been competing in Agility this year, and she's already finished both her Novice Agility preferred and Novice Jumpers preferred titles!  I've started doing more Preferred classes with my Danes in Agility, just so the jump heights are a bit lower - easier on their joints, and hopefully they will be able to continue to play in agility for a long, long time.
