4 Q's

Mommy and I went to Hattiesburg, MS last weekend for an agility trial. I did so good. I q'd 4 times! Q and 2nd in Snooker, Q and 1st in Standard, Q and 1st in Jumpers, and Q and 1st in Gamblers. I almost had a Q in Pairs but my partner was too slow..I ran fast but couldn't make up the time.

Mommy saw some friends from our old training place. She had a good time catching up with them.

I saw my old teacher and went up to her to get petted. I put my head under her hand and was wagging my tail. She ignored me. :( It made Grandad mad. Finally the old teacher look at Grandad and kinda petted me. I don't know why she doesn't like me.

Our new agility teacher is proud of me! I try hard to be a good girl and a good agility dog!!

UKI AGILITY TRIAL

Mommy and I went to an UKI agility trial last weekend. It was so hot, but I ran hard and tried. I Q'd 3 times! Mommy was so proud of me. I even got ahead of her on the course and did all 12 weave poles right! Someone was there from the old training place and all they had to say was "Marley looks good". I look more than good....I look great!! Mommy says I would have never gotten this far if we hadn't changed to Mrs. Linda's agility class. I love my new class!!

AM I HAPPY?

Mommy gets asked by some old classmates if we are happy where we are. Mommy always says yes, this is where we need to be! I like my new class. I made friends and people don't pull their dogs away from me. I fit in nicely!

Mommy says I have made alot of progress in my new class...I can do 4 jumps in a serepentine and Mommy stands at the end of the 4th jump! That's TALENT!!!

MY FIRST AKC Q!

Mommy and I went to an AKC agility trial last weekend. I did good. I stayed in the ring, paid attention to Mommy, and finished all 4 of my courses! I also earned my first Q in Novice JWW. Mommy was so happy!

People who hadn't seen me run agility in awhile couldn't believe how good I did.

My new agility teacher thinks I have incredible potential in agility. I really like agility and I really like my new class.

NO FIGHTS!!

I have been a real good girl lately. I haven't gotten in any fights in a long time. Nobody in my new agility class keeps their dogs away from me. They are all nice to me. So I don't feel like I have to be snarky. Mommy says this is where we need to be now for my agility training. I really like it b/c I'm not the "bad girl" anymore. Mommy says I need the structure that our new class offers.

NEW MANNERS

Mommy is making me mind more. I don't really like it. She won't let me get on the sofa anymore. If she catches me on it, she makes me get off. When she goes to work, we all take turns rolling on the sofa. She also makes me sit in a stay when Molly practices her weaves. I don't like to wait, I want to go weave!! I kinda like the weaves now!

SNOW

I have had a lot of fun playing in the snow. Mommy has taken us on walks and let us play. I even went for a couple of swims. I like it when Mommy throws snowballs at me and I catch them. I also like running fast in the snow!! I hope it snows lots more!!
