Vickie Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Why not give it a try Most dogs enjoy agility & most dogs have the potential to be good at it. Where are you located? There are lots of clubs, classes & trainers in Sydney. We had a Collie Rough here for 7 months & I started her in agility. She loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amerykus Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 You'll know your dogs loves it by the HUGE smile on their faces... or in my case by the the LOUD screams and barking when we rock up to training/comps ;) ( we DONT get that sort of reaction to showing ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collie angel Posted August 25, 2010 Author Share Posted August 25, 2010 im located campbelltown way, after tonight i think i have a herder!!! she was trying to get the cat he would move she would go in front of him to stop him and she would not listen when i said NO thinking she may need to go to training first i know there is a lady in austral so may give her a call i need to do something with her as she needs the stimulation i think as walking is not enough for her Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiggy Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Agility is a lot of fun, I'd definitely recommend giving it a go, you can join a club for the fun/social side even if you don't aspire to trialling. My Mr Serious dog loves it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoothieGirl Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) Give it a go CA. Bronte went to her first agility clinic last Thurs and took to it like a duck to water, she loved it. When the instructor was explaining the next obstacle I had to move away from all of them because she kept putting herself over and through them. She kept wanting to do the tunnel and apex ramp without me asking. By the end of a 2 hour session she had even pretty much got the hang of the see-saw and was even tipping it over by herself. It keeps bodies and minds active, what more would a Collie want? Edited August 25, 2010 by SmoothieGirl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collie angel Posted August 25, 2010 Author Share Posted August 25, 2010 Great sounds like Lilly would like it just trying to do something with her as i think she may be bored we walk her daily and hubby takes them to the dog park most days but she seems to have alot of energy not like Bella lol and she loves the tunnels and ramp at the park.
