we have been waiting for a long time for this - now that Snowy is one year old we can join the agility training and today was the first training.

Here are some pictures:

I'm used to having Snowy walking/running on my left side so having Snowy on my right side will take some time to get used to.

Your dog is just the cutest when doing agility!!

When my puppy grows up, she's only 14 weeks right now, I look forward to doing agility with her also.

Snowy really does look like she is enjoying trying something new. I am sure she will have it mastered in no time. She is a very smart little girl.

Great pictures! Looks like you guys had lots of fun! :) That's strange that she has to run on your right side -- over here, the dog needs to be on your left.

Maybe you guys in Kelowna are just mixed up :p 'cause when I was in agility there are no rules as to what side the dog has to be on... just whatever side is best to hit the obstacles in the right order in the fastest time....

Dogs that have been thoroughly obedienced trained often have difficulty switching over to the other side.

Ditto, i am so happy to see you getting her out and about and having fun. Snowy is just precious. Keep up the great work.

Also dogs here have to work on both the left and right sides aswell ;).
