Owen (my scotty) and I went to an Earth Dog fun day today. It was great! All the "pro" earth dogs were there, and they let the visitors play too. Owen got to run a few heats with an experienced jack russell and a few other newbies. He did the kind where you are in the little cage, then the door opens and you chase a tail down a long chute with other dogs. Winner is the one who goes through the end first. Anyhoo. He loved it. First time he was sorta unclear on the concept. But I ran with him and he figured it out. Second time he came in SECOND (of the beginers, lol). After that he loved it! Every time a new heat started he tried to get right in there. I think we will go back! It was a hot day (it hasnt really been hot yet) and Owen is black so we left after a few hours.
What fun! Bonus: we met some nice other dogs and owners.
Does anyone else participate in "formal" games with their dogs?
