Agility Training?

[boredcollie]

Has anyone here done agility training with their BC? I've been thinking of doing it with mine but am not sure where to begin. We've been playing a lot of frisbee and she's begun doing tricks for it, which is great to be moving away from food treats.

These are pictures of my tri-colored pound puppy, Jane. She loves to herd rock crabs, chase the

OMG - she is adorable! Absolutely adorable!

Sorry I can't help you with your question, but I had to comment when I saw her pictures!

Thanks so much! She was rather skinny and a little raggedy when I first got her (she'd been a stray, and had a few patches of fur missing) but she's looking prettier and healthier every day.

I posted on here about my dog and I and the agility class we're in, but since it was members-locked I don't think anyone saw it. Go figure.

Look for the closest agility club that offers classes in your area and start there. Some classes require that your dog already have a basic grounding in obedience, so if you haven't done that you might want to as well.

I live in a relatively small town in Mexico, so there aren't any dog training/agility classes available down here. Everything I've taught her, I've done through the kikopup YouTube channel. (Which is awesome, if you haven't heard of it or seen it -- I've had Jane 3 months and she knows over 20 commands through positive reinforcement training.)
