My guy just started beginner agilty classes and he really loves it...comes home so happy. We have little jumps and a tire and tube in the backyard and he thinks he's hot stuff. I get a bit worried though when the trainer forces him to do something. (like full height a-frame, dog walk) It seems to work for the big guys but I do not like it and had to let her know. She said I baby him too much which was typical for "toy breed" owners. He is treat-driven so I assume theres no time to work that way in a group class. If he did not like the class so much I'd pull him out. What's your experience gang? I thought forcing injures your bond, but when does it build confidence? michelle and henry (15 month boy) catskill mountains NY -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [email protected] Sent: Mon, 15 Jan 2007 11:10 AM Subject: [Chihuahuas] Agility Chis Rock
My little man got his Novice Agility Title from the AKC yesterday! I am so proud of him. He would've gotten it on Saturday if his silly handler (me) had not hit the wing of the second to last jump with her knee. See, Chis can do anything! ________________________________________________________________________ Check out the new AOL.
