General, non-specific posts.
I’ve felt for quite a while now that it doesn’t feel like agility in America is advancing at a pace that other parts of the world seem to be advancing. My experiences competing overseas just amplifies that feeling I have. The courses, the atmosphere, the mentality all seem to be at a different level in this country compared to Europe. There is nothing necessarily wrong with that as the demographics and audience in America are […]
Today is Dog Agility Blog Action Day and the topic we are going to be discussing is FUN.

As I get ready to head to ITT, I wanted to write down […]

I’m not sure exactly what will take place here, but hopefully having this space available will inspire me to write and share things about dog agility from my perspective. How often posts will comes I have no idea. What topics I might cover I have no idea. I’m not an instructor so I doubt training ideas will come flowing forth from me. Right now, I’m more […]
