Thanks a lot, I appreciate it :smile2: Here's new stuff from us..... first training video and second slow motion from one of our runs. Hope u enjoy it :smile2: http://youtu.be/7uA5mdB7PEQ?list=UUG6WDwgOS3WQkuIedODMg9Q http://youtu.be/xzhPusBcAqs?list=UUG6WDwgOS3WQkuIedODMg9Q

I agree that US and European agility is very different. I love European courses, handling and all the challenges. Though sometimes I feel like people take it too seriously - often you see handlers who won't even play with the dog or praise him after the run. I've seen certain top handler from...

Thanks Mitchy, happy you enjoyed it :smile2:

Litte 'fun' video from us :biggrin2: My friend made this video for me, slightly different from other vids http://youtu.be/WCkUBCs7lrs

You're right about that # of strides, it make huge difference. I know bigger/longish dogs that are very efficient in their movement. They don't look like they're running fast at all, but in the end they get amazing times. It really makes the big difference the way the dog moves. Question for...

I agree with you. It's really sad when I see dogs that are obviously much taller than they should be for medium category. As you said it's not so much about competition, but about the rules that everyone should follow. But yea, it sure puts smaller dogs who are rightfully in small/medium...

Thanks :biggrin2: Poor boy is used to taking pics lol. But what he wouldn't do for a treat haha. I have a question about your mesh BOT and how it functions - he didn't wear it too much yesterday, but I still wonder how it's supposed to work. E.g. he's rather cold under the blanket, but had...

Ok here's few pics http://s293.photobucket.com/user/helpspb/library/BOT?sort=3&page=1

Mesh arrived today. It's really nice product and I think it fits him perfectly. Just put it on to try it out for awhile, he's had it on him for 30mins (gonna take it off in a moment) and it's interesting he's warm at certain spots at one side of his body and relatively cold at others. I'll try...

Thanks. I ordered the mesh so now we gotta wait til it arrives :) I agree. I'm not planning on using it on regular days when we go for a walk. When I mentioned wearing it at home I meant after training class over the night or after whole weekend at the trial. Our trainings are quite intense so...

Thanks a lot to both of you. Yea, I guess I'll stick with mesh. It looked so well on him and fit perfectly. Also as you said it seems so light and I like that. I feel like mesh is pretty good for shelties. From what I've read there should be no problem with the coat, but some people threw me a...

Thanks I'm happy for every feedback. He said mesh wouldn't be enough effective because it's too thin and light, but I don't think many sheltie owners would be using it if it was the case. Plus as I said I think standard is good maybe for winter trials but not to wear in summer and around the...

Hi .... I'm back for further discussion. Over the weekend we had a chance to try out BOT mesh blanket size 40. It was perfect fit and looked pretty well on my sheltie. Though PROBLEM.... few people were trying to convince me that it can't work for sheltie with such a long coat. One of my...

Big congrats! Angus is so adorable. What a lovely photo of both of you.

Thanks :smile2: Seems like we're getting somewhere. We had another trial over the weekend and had 5 clean runs out of 6. 5x2nd place and total winner of all medium dogs. Only dog that outran us was medium border collie of my friend. :biggrin2: I hope we can keep it up and improve some stuff...
