So it's been a while since I updated here, but we were busy, between continuous training and "socialization" and boat trips to the lake, camping, etc - you know - the summer is here type stuff.
Yesterday was our last Beginner Agility class - Zander has graduated to Intermediate the day before he turned 4 months old. We are not trying to get ready for competition, although the trainers said Zander could, but Agility is an important part of SAR work and I am hoping these exercises will help later. Not only skills to jump, crawl, balance, but also directional commands - as we hope to dabble in the dister training if we can.
Back to Agility - here's Zander being persuaded to try the barrier:
