Agility Classes

Yes! Tilda is finally going to start agility classes. We will be in a beginner class with Gracie. I guess we will see how Tilda does around the other dogs. Besides being around other dogs, is the fact that she will be in a different place. It should be fun.

So, yesterday I found out that we are going to do agility classes, and what happens? Tilda is scared of the weave poles! I know, and she was doing good with them too. Go figure, we are going to do classes and Tilda is scared of the weaves. You might say, "how can a dog be scared of the weave poles? I mean they can't fall off like they can on a dog walk." This is what happened, first off I should say Tilda gets scared of things. My sister was working with her on the weave poles (we have to get Tilda ready for the classes) and Tilda's back legs or feet hit the poles or the base and then my sister bumped the weave poles. So that is how Tilda got scared of the weaves.

So, still in the same day (yesterday) I was working with her so she wouldn't be so scared. By the last time I had her weave for the day, she seemed like she was getting there, she didn't seem too scared.

Now today she still seems a little nervous, she seems to be bringing up her back legs or kind of doing a little hop through them. :)
