Last Thursday was our first class at PA Agility. Joule didn't seem too worried about being at a new facility. She quickly got to work, in spite of being almost attacked by a little Yorkie right off the bat.

This was her first time with the full height teeter. Interestingly, she did it fine the first time but kept bailing after that. She actually jumped off, tripped and landed on her cin which had to have hurt. Poor little suasage.

I have started the 2x2 training in earnest and have no one to 2 sets of poles at 12 and 6 and 2 and 8. We've only done one session but she seemed to have a fairly high success rate, about 75%. She looks up to see her treat sailing over her head...not a good habit. I will have to figure out how to solve that one.

I am also starting her at home on 4 jump pinwheels. I can get her to out about 6 feet and jump. However, she often misses the third jump as she goes wide and around. I think we will do some one jump work with the idea of getting her to narrow that parabola.

Tonight we start rally.
