Dog Training

I went to puppy obedience school with Mary and Basil tonight. It was agility work. It was soooooo cute. Here are videos.

Basil did great getting over the blue bar.

Basil did not do so great getting on the trampoline. He never did get on. But in this video you can see his friend Roxy, a St. Berdoodle that looks just like a bigger version of himself.

At first, Basil was quite hesitant with the A-frame.

But after some diligent work (Mary was a super trainer!), Basil had no hesitancy going up and over it:

Also, at first he would not go through the tunnel, but someone gave us the great idea to make the tunnel shorter until he got the hang of it. That idea got him to go through slowly and hesitantly one time. But after he realized he could do it, he quickly started running through it.

He also did some leg coordination work:

We weren’t able to get him to go on the platform along the wall.

I had so much fun with Mary at this class, and Basil is such a joy!
