Overall she had a good day considering this was only her second experience of 'competition' conditions. Would have gotten a clear round except for one thing......she'd never seen a 'wall' type jump before so decided to go around it (as you'll see in the video!). Take a good look at her eyes - she doesnt even seem to see it!! And no comments on my running style please - hadn't realised how I bend down so much to her until I saw this - and its awful! :lol: Posted Image

You need to learn to stand upright and run not leaning sideways, keep your arm out so Peggy knows you want her to keep out. How do you get the video on the post, I just keep getting funny messages.

I would have loved to have trained Milo to do agility (use some of his excess energy!) but as I use a wheelchair most of the time it didn't seem like a very good idea! :err: Mind you, he's probably too strong willed to have done very well. Would have been ok on the days he wanted to do it :thumbsup: but on those when he didn't... :pray:

I know - I hadn't realised that I did bend sideways until I saw this - thats why videos are a good thing to do every now and then! I just uploaded my video onto photobucket then copy and pasted the bottom link into this post - seemed to work ok when I do that.

She was distracted well before that and didnt even do 4 pieces of equipment before running off and doing her own version of the course!! :lol: Gotta love em haven't you :wub:

Agilitynet link Agilityonwheels - quite a few refernces to this if you google,think you need to join a Yahoo group though
