Agility School!

I signed Cam up for an agility class today!

Here's how he took the news:

(Sorry for the blurriness...dang phone camera sucks!)


He goes for an evaluation test in 2 weeks and I'm hoping he will have no problem with it. Here is what he has to do:

1. Sit on command without immediately getting up
2. Down on command without immediately getting up
3. 15 second stay with dog in any position and handler in any position
4. Restrained recall with distractions
5. Move with handler while on leash without dragging handler or being dragged continuously
6. Ability to be in a class setting with other dogs without being disruptive (no continuous barking or lunging)
7. Ability to do 2 tricks

If he passes we will get to start Beginner Agility 1 which lasts 6 weeks. He doesn't really know it yet, but he is going to be so excited!

And I will finally make some progress on my list!!
