Agility Novice: January 2015
http://www.agilitynovice.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 5, 2015. Agility Dogs and Continuing Education: Clicker Training. My thoughts on Clicker Training since I began learning it:. 2 My dog is scared to death of the click. This will never work. 3 Teach my dog to do something with a box using capturing? She is never going to get this. I wasn't ready to start. 5 I am far too clumsy to manage treats and a clicker. 6 My dog is too fast. She touched her nose to the box! 8 Oh My Gosh! She's IN the box! I taught her to wave! I was so reluctant to tr...

Agility Novice: February 2014
http://www.agilitynovice.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 18, 2014. A few weeks ago, I took Pico to a "Show and Go" which was held at Medina Swarm Agility Club. Where we have attended many trials. A 'Show and Go' or 'Run Through' is a practice event which is set up like a real trial and is very useful for new dogs or dogs with issues especially because treats and/or toys can be used in the ring. We attended this event primarily to work on Pico's Weaves and his Teeter. During our second event, we had a light bulb moment! Our new class session s...

Agility Novice: June 2014
http://www.agilitynovice.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 14, 2014. Of Course You Struggle in Wildcard". Today we ran at the Medina Swarm CPE-Style Practice Agility Trial. Bright and early this morning, I wondered if it was really in our best interest to enter such a thing on such a gorgeous day. Now, I am sure that it was. Our plan was to take the starting Jump (1), the A Frame (5), the tunnel (doubled to 6), the A Frame (5), the tunnel (doubled to 6), Jump (1), Jump (1), Jackpot A (Jump-Tunnel-Jump for 15), Tire (3), then attempt Jackpot B.

Agility Novice: September 2014
http://www.agilitynovice.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Monday, September 22, 2014. NYC: Everything's Moving (except for the dogs). Mike and I took the train from Pittsburgh to NYC recently. The ride was peaceful and easy, complete with fully reclining seats and lots of legroom. The train left on time and arrived at each station right on time. The big windows gave us great views of the rolling fields and majestic mountains of Pennsylvania. We stopped in little PA hamlets where life looked idyllic.

Agility Novice: May 2014
http://www.agilitynovice.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 29, 2014. I Have a Theory. Pico reminding me that lots of things are possible}. When I say, "I have a theory." Mike says, "Really? It seems I have lots of theories about lots of things because to me, that seems better than thinking I know it all I guess. After last night's surprise Private Lesson, I came up with 2 theories:. 1 Pico needs to learn to work with distractions because he clearly can still run Agility (I was thinking he'd never run a full course again). Plan and follow your lines!

Agility Novice: November 2013
http://www.agilitynovice.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 5, 2013. I was not going to blog about our most recent trial on 11/03/2013 because I wasn't real clear on what my learning lessons needed to be. After having such a great 2 day trial two weeks ago, this one seemed dismal. We had 1/4 Qs and Pico was not keeping a SLS, he was not Weaving, and he bailed off of the Teeter! It seemed like so much had gone wrong, I didn't know where to start! I was pretty sure most of it was my fault though! She has trouble acting normal when she's nervous".

Saturday, July 12, 2014. The Good, The Bad, and The Teeter. Pico and I attended a CPE trial at Medina Swarm. On Sunday July 6, 2014. As a Medina Swarm member, I was able to take Pico to 'Open Gym' night a few times and he was doing the Teeter and Weaves there just fine :). Some of the AU Crew: Alicia and Marty, Alyssa and Harper, Sweetie's Owner (sorry). Sweetie, Team Pico}. The first run for us was Snooker Level 3 and the course was:. Jumpers 4 was a nice, flowy course:. I made a few small bobbles along...
