Penny and I did a little bit of doggy dancing in the kitchen today. She has been deprived of her usual training classes because of the Summer holidays, so I thought we should at least do a few minutes' training. She jumped to her feet and began wagging her tail as she weaved between my legs. I think we're both looking forward to the time when classes begin again.
Looking around on the Net for tips as to how to work with Penny in the meantime, I came across a German video clip of a class that I think is called 'Fun and Games'. (My German's more than a little rusty.) The class seems to be for ordinary dogs, and is intended to make them more responsive and to increase general fitness. I was interested to see the slightly different equipment from what we use here in Australia. I especially like the wooden box that flips up a treat.
I also thought the little tent with the holes in it was interesting, as I have a somewhat similar item in my home-made collection of agility equipment.

Hi Parlance !Check this link out
and have a fun.
Oh what fun!!! I like that home-made treat-flying machine box too! Wouldn't it be fun to catch treats all day? I love stepping on paddles too especially the flyball box paddle...

Hi, Slavenka. I still can't get that link to work.
Penny and I have done a little bit of preparation for flyball but we haven't done it yet, so we don't know about the paddle. Have you posted any video clips of your flyball work, Amber-Mae?
Parlance, I've not posted any vids of me playing Flyball yet. I will soon... Will let you know when I do.
Love licks,
