Klaus is now a whizz around the agility course

April 22nd, 2010

Klaus is really getting to grips with the agility course although he is still on his lead.  He tries to rush everything and I have the job of catching him if he falls off the dog walk or see-saw.  For this reason, I hope he stops growing soon. 

We recently bought Klaus a huge red ball which he loves playing football with on the village green.  He gets a little frustrated though as its too big to pick up.

Klaus started agility training

March 10th, 2010

Last Saturday Malcolm and I took Klaus to agility training.  For a big boy, he is such a baby!  We started on the ‘A’ Frame and he cried all the way up and all the way down but after a couple of goes, he got the hang of it, and enjoyed the treat at the end.  He then moved onto the baby walk which is a plank up, a plank along and a plank down.  He really didn’t like walking the plank but again with a bit of encouragement, he did it.  The jumps were easy for him and the tunnel was fine once he saw his ‘dad’ waiting at the end!  After all the practice, we did a complete circuit with no issues.  Well Done Klaus!
