Ellz followed your advice about the lighter pants and it makes a huge difference! Thankyou (Baby in Group went to the American Cocker but the video is of the breed line up) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGQQ93rBl5w

fetchindawgs what would you recommed I do to help get Lincoln more interested in the bumper? He would rather Toby's squeaky toys.

I know Lincoln is bigger then Toby now

Pictures : He is too well behaved to jump up but REALLY wants them Lincoln trying to get it

Yes boxagirl Toby will be there tomorow (unless there is a storm) i missed it a few weeks cause my older girl was unwell and then I had an agility trial. Will you have Wolf or Bondi?

After hearing mixed results with both 2 by 2 and channel weaves and doing a bit of research I have come across the '3-4-5 Weave Pole Training' system by Eric Brad and decided to gove it a go. PDF of Method Here It is similar to 2 by 2 as it starts with two poles but then you add one, then two then 3 ect. It is a clicker method and just makes logical sense to me (Plus I don't have to pay lots of money for it )

I am going to start weave training with Toby this evening! (Wish me luck ) The ground is nice and soft so it will be easy to move my equipment around.

Am I seeing Chesapeakes in your future Kristen?

Yes Lincoln is super cute and well behaved, I keep waiting for the fall out.

I took Lincoln to training but hes just not ready yet. However I will be seriously doing it next year and trying some stuff during the year so he leans a little between now and then.

My blue medium iSqeak is sort of dead, I washed it and now it no longer squeaks for me but Toby still can make it squeak (or he has started squeaking ).

Which gundogs do you have fetchindawgs?

The shop may be open tonight and will definately be open tomorow (show starts at 6 tomorow so at least 6pm onwards).

Thanks for the birthday wishes everyone! Tassie I imagine I will be feeling the same way after Adelaide Royal

I don't know how you juggle it all Mirawee! Maybe just ANKC is enough for you

Yes, last night Toby spent a good hour just staring at the iSqueaks after I had put them away. I have never had him focused on a toy for so long. (Now I feel like an infomerical!) I will try to get a video of him with the iSqueak.

Like this? Yes except Toby's sounds like a dying cat and Lincoln is frantically chasing after him. Kei looked so cute. Lincoln is so cute, his jaw isn't srong enough to squeak it yet and he gets so frustrated!

After looking at the video of me running Lincoln and considering ellz advice (thankyou) I just went out and brought a pair of gray pants (couldn't find any lighter pants that weren't cargos/track pants). After 3 shows I already have a not what to wear! (Dark brown dog with black pants)

Rs here is the schedule of upcoming trials: http://www.adaa.com.au/calendar.htm And here is the schedule for the March trial: http://www.adaa.com.au/schedules/adaa262728mar10.htm

Will be there 9am tomorow

BP& G Midland? If so I will be down there in the next few days as Lincoln goes through food at a rapid rate!

Its cheap and entries are cheap and the beginners level is supposed to be much easier then JD and AD. So why not?

Tiby will be doing 550! (Might get my new jump poles made at that height, no harm in over jumping in regular agility )

Consider it done Just needed that prod to make sure it was sane Did you get my email about ADAA amypie? Here is one explaing what the classes are: http://www.paws4fun.org.au/index.php?optio...3&Itemid=17

Just doing my ADAA membership. Should I put Tobys name as Tobylarone?
