Around!

Here's me and my crew working on generalizing going around. It's a great cue (and fun) for agility, on trails and in every day life!



Here's Kee and my beagle Daizy who is pretending to be a sheep :P



I like the video w/ Kee and Daizy for two reasons;

1-It shows me working through a distraction, when Kee catches a whiff of something.
2-Also notice how wide Kee's circles are around Daizy (especially the first couple times) compared to the tree. Being respectful of an older dog, or any dog where you're adding movement that's not exactly in context of play, is smart.

A dog who is mindful and looks for cues to see if what they're about to do, or do as part of an interaction with another dog, is welcome, is worth their weight in gold.

ALSO...leads into my next sport endeavor...Trieball! A great way to engage herding dogs to release some of that herding talent on more appropriate things other than bikers, joggers, skateboarders, cars...or other animals!!!

Stay tuned for more info on that sport!
