In addition to obedience and tracking last weekend we also competed in a three agility trial. What a fun but exhausting weekend. Whisper earned another QQ-her 12th and fastest time to date in Jumpers-5.72 yds per second.
She enjoys agility as much or more than any other sport we compete in. Her tail never stops moving. Her weavepole entrances are super and I am finally learning to trust her to find and enter correctly as seen in the Standard run.
I think I am also finally learning to handle from a distance. What a blast to send her out to an obstacle, trust she will take it and cut to the next one to be ready when she comes in.
MACH goal:
12 QQs
616 MACH points

Super exciting! You must be a proud Mama.
You and the dogs are so inspiring to me!
The blog started out with Lyric and her litter of puppies. Now it is about all the amazing Aragon dogs - you need to post a picture of you, Helen, and Whisper together on the left of the Home Page just like the litter.
How cool! It's really different to see a greyhound run an agility course. I also follow a blog with a French bulldog who does agility and it looks mighty different when that little guy does it! Great videos!
Just found your blog from a link on Greyt Days and I'm glad I did.
Your dogs are amazing......
Love and licks, Winnie the greyhound
Whisper always looks so happy in these agility videos! It can't be easy running a fast, long-striding dog like that, but you sure do a nice job. Congrats on the QQ!
