Man so I'm currently laying on my side, scrolling, and my cat decided to jump up and lay on my hip. He never does this so I've been trying to limit my movement hoping he stays as long as possible.
The way I just had to stifle a laugh from your comment was Olympic. My cat stayed put.
Oh nice! I've always wanted to try it with a collie I look after, but he's just a bit too nervous of strangers sadly.
Good luck to you and your team at your future events!
My ADHD totem! lol. It's always amazing to see the dogs that just go after it and ace it like the border collie, but this would be me. "Yes, yes, let's go! Heyyyy! What's that over here? Oh, right, yes, yes, let's goooo!" lol
My favorites are the ones that have absolutely no business in an agility competition, like the old boys just there to get some exercise, or the big dopey ones like Saint Bernards that barely fit through the weave bars and get through the course in like 4 minutes. Love 'em!
Just so you understand, the dog has practiced all these obstacles but the dog doesn't know in advance what order the obstacles will be in. That's why the owner is out there directing.
Wait till you hear about the dog sport of Barn Hunting! Rats play hide and seek with dogs. Best part is, the rats and dogs are friends and usually grow up with each other. The rats are in tubes btw.
Those are called herding trials. “Dog trial” refers to a large number of dog sporting events, which are kind of broadly broken down into shows, trials, tests, and meets.

I've never watched this dog show thing before but fuck me that dog was impressive.
