Thanks Mark - it sounds like fun and I know that Ben would enjoy it once he got over his impatience! He doesn't do waiting very well!
We had our last taster session of agility today - the trainer said that Ben should come back for the 1-2-1's which is the next stage before the next class. These sessions are £10 for 1/2 hour so I don't think I can afford both
He loves the agility so much that he takes himself off to do things that I haven't asked him to do
The trainer did say that he had some 'learning' to do but that he was a natural and obviously loved it
There was one thing today that made us laugh - he was the second dog to do a figure of 8 - through the tunnel and sharp right to a jump. We were all told the commands to give and where to move to make the dog do it the shortest way possible. I was getting Ben to sit and wait while I got in position but he wasn't going to wait
He did it perfectly without me saying a thing
It was just a fluke but he just 'grinned' as if to say what's next
