Saturday Katie went to her last (for now) agility class.  Husband and I got to go along as well.  She wasn’t scared at all on the way, maybe because her Dad was in the car with us, or maybe because the longer driver didn’t worry her anymore.  She ran right into the building, all eager to get going.  And of course, while the instructor talked at the beginning of the class she barked at us all to HURRY UP!  This week’s obstacle was the A-frame.  Katie had never seen such a thing before and at first she didn’t want anything to do with climbing it.  Even with chicken placed up the slope!  No way!  Not going up there!  Then the instructor told me to pick her up and put her on the top.  Well!  She took one look at the chicken leading the way down the other side, and she scrambled down, gulping treats all the way.  We tried it again right away and Katie was up and over that A-frame before we even put any chicken down.  The third try was the same.  Success!  When it came time to run all the obstacles Katie just flew up and over the A-frame and through the tunnel, had no trouble with the jumps and sort of made it through the weaves, following my fingers.  But she really doesn’t like the beginning of the dog walk, and the tire is still confusing.  She balked at the chute every time, until someone held up the other end so she could see me.  But then every dog in the class balked at the chute.  And she was moving so fast when she landed on the table that she nearly slid off the other side, but she was laughing all the way.  She had a wonderful time!  Too bad it’s the last class until January.  Hopfully I’ll be able to enroll her again for more fun then.
