Because of the weather, that's all we can do really. Its alright Will, the pups have a "budget". A rather painful budget. But a limited budget. Next life man .. I'm coming back as a GSD! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> David C http://www.chautown.com Nip me once, shame on you! Nip me twice, shame on ME!

I'm a bit worried as both exhibit a lot of energy, but neither are that "graceful". Is that normal in the beginning? Thanks for the info - I'll let you know how they do. - David Chau http://www.chautown.com Nip me once, shame on you! Nip me twice, shame on ME! Handlers have responsibility!

Think our young pups don't start of being grace in motion on the agility course, they get it over time as WE handlers gain the skills we need to direct them smoothly thru a course. And the dog learn to trust and follow along. You want ALL the equipment to be learned FUN FUN FUN and be done FAST FAST FAST. Doing the weaves is NOT about painfully bending around each pole while the handler is luring, poking, pushing the dog. It should be about your dog knowing that 'weaving' is nailing the entry and tearing thru to the end. Hopefully that's been your goal and been attained. Were you able to start classes yet?
