Poodles, Dog Agility, Dog Training… and Knitting

Why I plan on holding my breath until Sunday

Figuratively speaking, of course.

Because Dancer did EIGHT teeters today.

EIGHT.
EIGHT.

Now, mind you, it wasn’t quite at full height, and she had to be on my left side, and I had to slow the descent just a touch, and I was rewarding at the pivot point… but hey, EIGHT times that marvelous dog got on the teeter and went steadily to the pivot point, pushed the teeter down and stayed on the teeter until I told her it was okay to leave.

EIGHT TIMES!

Sunday I plan to take this whole performance to the barn at Debbie’s and see what happens there.
