Finally some more agility!!

Hobbs and I finally made it back to agility today!! I have been feeling really sick for the past month, and we have barely gotten out of the house for walks some days let alone running around playing agility lol! But we have a trial coming up in just over a week so we needed to get back to practicing.

Today was another open practice at our local trial venue. I really love practicing there because it is building Hobbs confidence in a trial setting. He is also FINALLY starting to seem like he understands what is expected with his A-frame contact. The only reason I say that is because his speed on the obstacle has increased a ton, and he is hitting his contact most of the time. I haven't started running ahead of him or really doing anything other than going right beside him, but I have a feeling that will come soon. YAY!

Anyways, today's course seemed very similar to one we had a couple weeks ago. I am hoping that the one next week will be very different.


Our trial this next weekend is ASCA. We are still in novice and I think it will be fun to run some super easy courses. It will be a good start to our year. I am hoping it gets me excited for the agility season. I have been feeling kind of burnt out and un-enthusiastic about this year of agility, and I am not sure why. Hopefully that changes soon!
