A very hot weekend of agility in Feilding.
Some positives amongst the chaos! Potter was off his game and a bit La-La!
However, he did round out the weekend with a fab clear round 2nd placing on a tricky Senior course.
Torin had a great day yesterday staying in the ring, focused on the game and just getting 2 refusals in Starters 1 and an almost run with 5 faults in Starters 2, just tapping the end of the long jump. Super proud of him. Today was a different story with the return of the social spaniel! Too hot for the lad and easily distracted.
Also, fab results by Ed & Tui with a 2nd & 3rd placing in Starters 600s! 🎉
And well done to Joy & Lucy for finding some fun out in the ring today. 💖
We round out the agility calendar for 2025 next weekend with Jumpers in Upper Hutt!

🐇 Super friendly Bunny! 🐇

We have a bit of a bunny problem here. Holes being dug all over the training field.

This one obviously loves the feild so much he wanted to come and say Hi! He came back again later too!

Crazy wee thing!

Torin’s favourite way to cool down? Sprawling in the shower like a king on his cool surface 😄

What’s your dog’s favourite way to cool down?
Do they have a quirky spot like Torin? A funny habit? A favourite paddling pool?

Pop your answer (or a photo!) in the comments — I love seeing all the different ways our pups get creative with staying comfy in the heat. 🐾💛

Yesterday Tink & I did a wee bit of Scentwork in Levin at the Horowhenua Dogs NZ trial.
Tink did well with 3 out of 4 of her Advanced searches. Nailing her Containers, Interior & Vehicle searches and just missing one of the 2 hides in a hard Exterior search in super hot conditions.
Super proud of this lass who just started new medication for pain on Friday, so great that she was able to search well, though I think she was super tired on the last exterior search.
Not bad for this 9 year old girlie! 💖💖

❓Got one thing you’d love to tidy up before the Christmas/Summer holidays?

Finding the ‘Joy’ in dog training

At Active Dogs NZ we introduce you and your dogs to the world of training through games.

We focus on building real world solutions rather than concentrating on set behaviours, getting results that work at home, as well as in a class environment.

We help the dogs to make great choices by combining a variety of games to grow concepts such as calmness, focus and self-control, as well as building an overall general confidence to live in our crazy human world.

We are bringing the fun back to pet companionship training for all ages and stages, using positive, fear free, choice based dog training.
