    Yeah you COULD, but that is not good for their joints at all. I'm not even going to start to train for agility until I get his hips x-rayed at age 2. Well I *may* start to train a little on small jumps and the such (which they also need to know for obedience anyways) but nothing too strenuous and not for prolonged periods of time either.
    Soar high & free my sweet fur angels. I love you Nanook & Raustyk... forever & ever.

    thats why you don't have them go over jumps untill there done growing. You have to wait
    Thanks so much Ashley for the siggy!

    I want to put Sam in obedience trails, but he still needs some work.
