Glory B Wildhaus's FIRST Agility Trial!
Tried to explain it for newbies to the sport. So proud of her and how well she did! I had no interest in Qualifying, just seeing her attitude/attention and work on the finer points (like her 2on/2off contacts!).
ENJOY!

Dang it. Kinda jealous of you all now. For whatever reason, I can't get the video to render past 0:37. Guess I'll have to check it in the morning.

 I'm not sure what they were seeing but they saw it FAST and live. I think the weird way she flipped up and over the aframe (and she's NEVER done that before) looked and sounded off. And they've never seen Glory's jumping style before so that may have added to everything. PLUS she was REALLY weird/slow on the dog walk, but I'd watched about 10 dogs thru the day also run the dogwalk super carefully so I was expecting that. BUT SHE WAS FINE. When I finished the run, I had her run around and they watched and she appeared fine. The last run on the video took place about 1 hour later and you can see she's fine. Alyalanna, agility started as a demo during a HORSE show in England. A jump show! Many people who used to jump horses are now in dog agility in the USA and all that horse training is a big help to their runs. Course the view is different from on top of the horse rather than beside the dog! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_dog_agility Wildo, glad you got to watch it finally. That IS me clapping. Not my normal running style at all I just wanted to make sure she'd stay focused and enthusiastic on ME and didn't want to be using words to muddy the handling. You know how I'm always going on and on about our dogs ATTITUDE being the most important thing in agility. We want fun AND fast. That was my goal for the trial, FUN FAST FOCUSED.... and I got it. So now I can continue to work on that and some of the handling skills mixed in. Clearly I need to practice the darn panel jump, and contacts almost always break down at a trial.So while she's 100% in class with her contacts, she's also running true to form at trials with NOT being as consistant. But I know to watch for it and not reward her for a BAD contact by running on....we'll get it!
