Welcome to a blog about my experience as a dog owner. While I intend to focus on agility, that will by no means be the only topic!

Old Dogs, New Tricks?

The New Rochelle Humane Society recently held a trick contest for their volunteers. Participating volunteers picked a dog, and then taught them as many fun tricks as they could. The results were extremely impressive, considering that the average volunteer probably doesn't spend more than a few hours at the shelter in a given week, and each dog is handled by many volunteers.

For your viewing pleasure, here are a two of the excellent entries: Saunders the cocker spaniel and Pinky the pitt.

Those are some great shelter dogs (and volunteers)!

Then the shelter manager had to send out this link, so now I have a litany of new trick ideas for my own pups.

Train on!
