Well.. life has been nonstop crazy since mid May, and we are just now having a chance to stop for a second to get caught up. Because of my busy schedule, I have to say since our long trip to Chicago, the dogs have not gotten to do much, except for visits to Grandma's and finally last week, a private agility lesson.
Tractor is bouncing off the walls, so hopefully that energy and excitement carries over into Worlds, which is coming up in just a few weeks! Our trip to Chicago was a blast! Tractor got to do an AKC trial, a dock diving competition and all four dogs got to spend four days at Camp Dogwood!
Camp was a lot of fun for the dogs.. Tractor learned a new sport, disc! He is absolutely crazy about a frisbee now, when before we went out there, I couldn't get him to retrieve one to save his life. They also all got to swim, lure course and run amuck. It was a lot of fun and I put some pictures up on our Phanfare, so take a look.
Last week, we had our first dose of agility since May, and like last time we took a temporary hiatus, Tractor's head exploded upon arrival. All in all, it was a productive lesson, showed me that I definitely should not be taking that much time off.. its like I need to be retrained all over!
Anyway, for now, I am traveling, so aside from a few private lessons, the dogs are sitting tight until the end of July. Becky, Steph and I will be making the trek cross country once again, to Minnesota, to compete in the World Championships for Speed Retrieve. I'll try to be better about posting, but if nothing else, will definitely post an update after that.
New video from the private lesson is up on youtube, so take a look! Hope everyone is doing well!
