BTW, this search was prompted my the current group hosting the classes that we're in is working on an epic fail and we're actively seeking a new training home. This new club looks like our best bet. If anyone has any first hand knowledge of a club in the Dayton, OH area called Crossroads Canine Club that I should know about, good or bad, let me know. http://www.crossroadscanineclub.com/ Photos of the Polar Bear Agility trials when available!!!

Sounds fun I leave my stuff out and work until the snow is too deep, or we have ice where it's not safe. The outdoor agility season in MN is just too short! Good luck in your class search |
There's actually a UKC sanctioned show at the club's building this weekend, so we're going to check things out first-hand. Vance |
I looked at the site - looks like they are a predominantly UKC and CPE event club. I love both groups, so I would have no trouble with the place based on that. Hope they are good dog people there. |
We LOVE snow agility at our house.... Here is a post from almost three years ago with a bunch of pictures of Harry doing agility in the snow: viewtopic.php?f=24&t=23761&hilit=agility+snow and a video of last year doing the weaves in the snow ...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aj86jlE68f0 |
WOAH! That's way too cool! I hope Schubert can do things like that once he's older Also, General Question about Agility: I remember our breeder briefly mentioning that some dogs are born with the "agility body type" Can anyone enlighten me as to what exactly that means? If my memory serves me correctly, Schubert's brother that was chosen to do agility, was smaller, and had shorter legs.... |

Generally an agility body in an OES means they don't carry as much bone & they are on the smaller side of the standard for a boy or a girl. So I guess it depends on what you are breeding for. Our standard says "well muscled with plenty of bone". That's not to say that OES can't do agility. It just depends on the overall size, balance & conformation of each individual dog. Our lines carry a lot of bone & muscle. That makes them have a bit more weight to haul around. |
