Default Last Class Tonight

Tonight is our last agility class, my trainer is moving away. :(
I can't seem to find a good replacement, either. Very frustrating!

Dang that would be tough..have you gone to trials to watch and see who's style you like and then find out who the train with or are they a trainer.

Yeah, but unfortunately the trainers I like are a million miles away from my house.
:(
I might take a break from agility for a bit and get some rally under our belt, I am hoping that will help Flip focus a bit. He's got so much speed but he doesn't focus on me at all. Boo.
I am super sad.

That's a bummer, a connection with a trainer is so important! I think getting Flip to focus in another area might be a good idea though, especially if that's an area of weakness for him. Our first PWD participated in all sorts of dog sports (flyball, agility, water work) and it took him a few years to get focused and calm enough to actually succeed in agility. A very memorable performance was when he racked up something like 60 faults because he just made up his own course!
