Cuddly Pups, and Agility Preview

We've been busy!  And cold!  But luckily, we have some cuddly, happy pups to love at home. : ) 




And her, of course. 

We just brought over an old couch from my mom's -- someone claimed it as his own instantly.  : )

Since 2013 started, Coda and I have kicked our Agility training up a notch.  In addition to the weekly group classes, we also have a private agility teacher, Hannah Bright, whom we see once a week for a private lesson/coaching session.  It's SO MUCH FUN to work with her, and Coda is improving steadily.  Hannah is great at targeting what we need to work on while always challenging us and teaching new material.  (If any Columbus people want to contact her for agility, behavior, puppy, or general training issues, feel free to post a comment with your contact info and I'll pass it on to her.  I can't recommend her enough!)

Patric takes Brighton to our lessons too, and works with him on strengthening his rear and overcoming fears.  Brighton's doing awesome.  He's much more confident in his movements and is gaining speed!

We, however, are doing a poor job of documenting our agility training and updating this blog.  More fun agility photos and videos to on our next post very soon!!

The Bri!

Coda's the third dog from the front.  Good boy!
