What fun! I'm hoping Nayru will enjoy agility or coursing.

This Saturday saw our last agility training session of the season.
Chance's brains were really not where they should be this weekend (the bitches are in season!) and he really showed me up. All he was interested in was humping my arms and legs. :rolleyes:
We did a warm up course and off he went to do his own thing! Nose on the ground and away in another world. Next we broke the course down into sections and did training on each piece of equipment. When we got to the box where he is supposed to do a 5 second Down, he wouldn't even sit!!! He just kept grabbing my arms. I very nearly gave up and remove him from training all together. At the end of the training session, one of the instructors came up to me and asked if she could have a word with me before we continued. :eek: I was sure she was going to ask me to remove Chance from class as he was being so disruptive. But instead, she asked me if the club could use a photo of Chance on their posters to advertise agility for non-collie breeds!!!!! :eek: Of course I said yes.
After a cup of tea we had the opportunity to do another lap of the course. I wasn't sure whether to bother with Chance but I did and thank god I did. He really redeemed himself by doing a near perfect round. He even did the box! He went through the tyre unaided for the first time too
I've attached some pics that were taken on the day. During the training sessions I kept him on the lead as it was an open field with plenty of other dogs and even a huge white cat wandering around. I think I'll use the pic of him on the dog walk and have the lead photoshopped out. Some of the pics are a bit out of focus. What do you guys think?

Great pics! Chance looks really handsome!

Thanks Scoops and Janneke. Chance is a very handsome boy. He was a little thinner than I would normally like but the bitches are in season and food is not his main priority at the moment! He has super muscle tone, I like to keep him super fit.
