    Walk for the Animals ~ PICS & VIDS ~

    Hey everyone!

    Saturday was the Capital Area Humane Society's event, Walk for the Animals. The weather was gorgeous and they figure this was their biggest turnout.

    There were police K9 demonstrations, Flyball demos, Frisbee demos, an obstacle course, and of course the walk itself.

    Got some pics and short video clips.

    Police K9 demo of a man attacking an officer at a traffic stop and the K9 coming to the aid of the officer


    Video of the demo

    After the K9 demos, anyone could try their hand at the equipment. Kia did it all except for the high window jump. She didn't like the seesaw, tire jump, or tunnel. She only tried the tire jump and tunnel once. She got better at the seesaw over a couple of tries.

    Other stuff...

    Kia on the stairs


    Heading up the A-Frame


    Across the Seesaw


    Up and over the barrels


    People checking out the equipment


    Kia and Andy jump!


    Mom and Kia try (She wouldn't jump unless we jumped with her)


    The walk begins


    Me and Kia


    Up some stairs


    Man made falls


    Kia ran the obstacle course in 7.47 seconds
    She had the fastest time for awhile.... the winner had a time of 4.26 seconds.

    I've got to figure out what's wrong with this browser(Mozilla) I just started using it and it won't let me view videos. Lots of good pics. The one of you two was really cute. You both looked very happy.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.
    [/SIZE]



    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    What a clever girl.

    NO WAY would my dogs climb those barrels!!! Going around them would be their choice!!!

    I was just wondering about you two, and why we hadn't seen any new pics and videos lately
    I haven't watched the vids yet, but as soon as I'm done here I will. The pictures were great & it looks like a good time was had!
    Give your silly girl a big hug from me

    Ok, just watched them and they are great! I can't believe she's not afraid of any of that stuff! There is no way you would have gotten Roxey to jump over those barrels (maybe go through them, but not jump them )
    Good job Kia girl!!!

    Thanks! Kia is blushing.

    I didn't think she'd go over the barrels either.... I kept giving her a running start but each time she'd balk away, running around them. Then I tried patting the barrel and said "UP!" and she jumped up and climbed over!

    Sandra, I don't think the barrels, high window like jump, and stairs are part of a normal agility course. I could be wrong. This is the equipment that the police departments use to train their K9's. They had their dogs running the course before they opened it to anyone. I wish I had gotten pics.

    Andy said he caught a glimpse of one of the K9's going up the stairs BACKWARDS!

    Take a wild guess at the first thing I noticed in this pic....... Here's a hint...it's bright orange and cone-shaped! teehee

    Great pics! It looks like you all had a wonderful time! Kia is such a good girl for trying out all of those things, especially the barrel! I don't think Nebo would do that!

    Did you ever get the check/card I sent you for the walk?
