Yesterday's Wordless Wednesday was a preview of my latest endeavor! We saw this video of Nana the Border collie balancing stuff, and she is just so incredible that we were inspired to do a little simple balancing too!

Why did I break my 2012 New Year's resolution of not barking at cars on January 1st?
Did mom's new iPod Touch replace me as her most faithful companion and best friend?
Will I ever get to work on other tricks?

They are taking Silvia Trkman's internet class and we are living vicariously through them. Here is a little video of me practicing jumping from the floor to the top of an object. I like this but don't know how I will feel about something less stable and smaller.

They had lots of fun! I, on the other hand, not so much.

Remember me? Ricky? I just realized that I only posted 4 entries in the entire month of October! Where did the month go? Here is a little recap of things that happened in October. Mom and dad cleaned and stained their deck - big project because they had never stained anything before. It turned out great (but too orange).

I was so excited to play this game that I couldn't think straight.

I am not one of nature's natural froggy leg dogs! But Sara gave us some advice - like starting with me on a cushion - that really helped me to figure out what my crazy mom wanted. I still need a lure - I am not so stupid as to do the trick without some tantalizing food in front of my nose.

We set up the weaves and dusted off the Flip camera. For the first time ever in my life, mom got out some canned food as my reward - it smelled so very exciting!

I had a blast with it! We taped this a few weeks ago and just got around to editing out the boring parts. We later changed the pinwheel to a serpentine and that went well too.

I am also behind in reading blogs. The weather here has been gorgeous for the past week - I feel very guilty saying that when so many were hit with Irene - but it is true. We are outside a lot and playing agility and going for walks. Yesterday we went on an awesome walk but the mosquitoes attacked us Ricky the Sheltiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18052668808100244423noreply@blogger.com8tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962113910976722292.post-55285716271925529582011-08-20T08:49:00.003-04:002011-08-20T08:52:59.843-04:00For funSince I haven't been going to classes or trials, all my agility this summer has been in the backyard for FUN! I have learned some obstacle focus so now when mom is actually running with me and tries to indicate the jump she wants with her motion, I sometimes veer off and take jumps on my own. Catastrophic if you are working to be on the World Team but awesome if you are just having fun and Ricky the Sheltiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18052668808100244423noreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962113910976722292.post-718268232043681802011-08-17T11:40:00.002-04:002011-08-17T11:42:26.048-04:00Wordless Wednesday

However right or wrong, this week we did position 6. At the end mom added an extra bit of her running in the opposite direction from me and that was VERY tough! I didn't like it at all. If mom hadn't done all that cheering, I would've stopped dead in my tracks. I thought she had lost her rocker! LOL!

We were surprised by this guy in the woods on our walk the other day!
He is just a black rat snake and not poisonous or anything. But we almost stepped on him - that is how unaware we were - LOL!

We did all the same exercises but now with the jump slightly angled. The recall was tough. Mom walked out about 8ft from the end of the weaves and faced me and stood still and called me to weave. The first time I thought it was a regular recall and ran by the weaves.

We appreciate all of the advice and support and love so much. Today at class Jenn was sick and we had a classmate as the substitute instructor. He did a great job! Only three other dogs/people were there (no barking dogs either). So it was nice and quiet and we got to run more sequences Ricky the Sheltiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18052668808100244423noreply@blogger.com17tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962113910976722292.post-48668335316848206122011-04-09T17:11:00.004-04:002011-04-09T17:23:49.051-04:00Today's TrialWe went to a trial today - the first one since January. I really struggled with the jumps in the STD run and even knocked a bar. Put the video on full screen so you can see - otherwise it is too small. The JWW course was really good for us - long straight aways. But after I had so much trouble jumping in the STD run, I really didn't feel confident enough to jump in the jumpers.

Our skills drill this week was about how to teach your dog to get on the dogwalk safely. We were supposed to practice wrapping around a jump standard and then a cone for homework the week before.

But one of our games I like a lot incorporates my crate into a little living room agility.

Today we had to do zig zag lines. I had never practiced them before. They were based on Linda Mecklenberg's zig zag exercises from the section starting on page 185 in her Developing Handling Skills book. Our exercise had four jumps - at least three were winged (maybe all four were) and they were zigged and zagged.

We have a 6 ft real tunnel and then two kids' play tunnels we put together to be the bigger tunnel. It made the entrances more obvious but we could still practice the skill.
