The Days of Johann - an agility dog!

A little agility practice!

Posted: 21 May 2009 06:43 AM PDT

Mum and I got in a little agility practice in the backyard the other day. Dog, the weather has been amazing for agility lately. Cooler, sunny, dry, super nice!!! Even though it's a little warm in the middle of the day, the evenings are amazing!

We wanted to work a little on pinwheels, and keeping me tight and fast in them. Not so sure we accomplished the fast part (although the speed isn't too bad), but we did accomplish the tight part. Mum tried to get in front crosses, one time she couldn't make it and had to improvise. Goofy Mum!!!

Oh, and you can hear our neighbor trying to kill their lawnmower with tall grass, BOL!!!

But the biggest and funnest thing?

It's when I jump in Mum's arms at the end. We've been working a lot on that. It's not the best jump up, but we're getting there! Have to say it took two years for us to get this far with the jump in the arms thing, and working it into a little agility run. Mum's proud of me, I finally got it! Woofs!

Spreading the word - keeping cool dogs out of hot cars!

This morning I reaffirmed my pledge to keep cool dogs out of hot cars! See that's me with my "My Dog Is Cool" certificate!

I've been seeing way to many reports in the news already this summer of folks leaving their dogs in super hot cars, some severely injuring their dogs, others with pups that sadly didn't make it through the ordeal. I just can't fathom what it would be like to suffer in a hot car!!!

Can you help me spread the word?

I updated my Squidoo lens - Keeping cool dogs out of hot cars with new info and links to sites that have great ideas and materials for spreading the word! And while you're there why not take the pledge too, if you'd like!!! It's cool!
