Summer Fun

This weekend we are doing one day of a NADAC trial in Zumbro Falls and then we take a month off from trialing.  Mainly because there are few local trials in June and summer is starting to get in the way.  I have started some agility training with Breeze - she was introduced to the tunnel as well as a slightly raised board to simulate the dog walk.  She is catching on great and seems to have way more confidence than Zoe.  I also made a small teeter out of the board and she didn't seem to mind the movement at all.  Confidence can be great, but it can also be a challenge.  I'll have to supplement all of this with some solid obedience training as well.

Zoe is getting along with her new younger sister and seems to be enjoying the playtime.  I hope it helps her confidence and gives her more energy for shows.  We've also been taking a lot of walks in the woods, which wears them out a little bit.  I am looking forward to a lot of park visits and long walks this next month!
