The BEST Adventure YET!



What an AMAZING adventure we had last weekend! Eric and I and the 'ruppies traveled to Hawesville Ky for a full day of military style agility! Because L and L had a background in stress agility, they faced each of the insanely difficult obstacles with confidence. Of course, they had Eric and I there with them the whole time.

This course was a bit different than the one L and L know and love in Milton. Most of the Hawesville obstacles are so difficult that the handler always has to join the dog. The obstacles simulate real-life survival situations you might face with your dog--you work as a team, not master and handler.

I'm so proud of my dogs. I love them with every inch of my being. I am so happy that I fell into this dog training group. Not only have Eric and I met many like-minded friends, we've given our dogs a life the could never have dreamed of. *tear*

Here is a video of Lou and I on the most difficult obstacle there...the dreaded TRIPLE X! You can see how stressed Louie is (and how stressed mommy is!), but he doesn't for one second refuse the obstacle. He knows he has to do it (we never, EVER let them give up, we never give up on them!) and knows I'm there for him. AHHHH...my bayboy is all growed up!


Thanks Brent and Jesse for taking these great pictures!
