It was fun to be there and watch. The audience was cheering for the dogs. The children were eagerly backing up the dogs, hoping that they will complete the task fast and without mistakes. Ready, get set, go!!!

How about a peek on a"blooper"?

Agility and Fly Ball Competition

The PCCI held its very first Dog Agility Competition and Fly Ball Competition this month of February 2012.

It was a 3-day event, from February 24 to 26, spearheaded by Mr. Simon Sim, an excellent PCCI judge and dog lover.

Practice training, through the set-up of the obstacle course and the presence of an obedience trainer, together with other dog owners interested in agility dog training, will be made available this month of March.


Try and try until we succeed, but have fun in the process. How about that for a motto, heheh.

"Dog Show" Shows "Show Dogs"

Fun, fun, fun!!!

Yooohoo, so many dogs, big, small, black, white, hairy, skinny, plump, cute and scary. So many of them being groomed, some over excited while others are dozing off, many are eating and drinking (both the dogs and the people).

Here are some of the show dogs being prepared by their owners or handlers . . .

Awwww!

Jasper's First Run

Here's Jasper's first run on the agility obstacle course after a day of training. Of course am a proud Mama, though we have a long way to go as to committed time and training for Jasper to really get a hang on it. Good luck to us, heheh.

Let's Go Jasper

I've been busy preparing Jasper and his things so we can go off to the venue where we can do the agility training with other dogs and their owners.

It's fun because it is a new activity for me and Jasper plus we get to socialize with dogs, not only with our own breed. Pretty cool!

Not much grooming needed or lots of tools and kits to take as compared to being off for a dog show competition. That's a plus point.

Also, this type of training is good for a dog with lots of energy that needs re-directing. Jasper seems to fit that description.

So, let's go Jasper. Have to grab your crate, and off we go!
