Bethany completed level II of agility, and rather than wait for a level III class, I took her straight to private lessons.
We have a good teacher who has been doing this for 15 years. I say "we" because I am learning as much
or more than Bethany! I have to learn how to communicate through gestures, commands and body language, to give Bethany
the right instructions for the course. It's fun and good for both of us. Agility class is the time when Bethany
thinks. You can see it on her face. With her, it's never a question of "am I going to do what you're
asking" but "do I understand what you're asking?" She is such a good girl. She can get distracted
or bored, so you have to keep the energy high with praise and attention. She is doing well. The teacher took some
photos of us, but I will have to scan them in before I can send them to you. One of these days...
