So yup I did more weave poll thingies in the back yard. The Mum says she wants me to practice every day. And since I don’t really know how to do them yet, I need the Mum there to practice with me. So she did some video of me last night and aren’t I just good? I had fun too, you can tell because my tail was wagging. I like eating the tune brownies! And even though it’s hard to learn the weave polls, this smooth collie girl can do it!
I think I’m starting to understand how it all works but it’s confusing and it’s hard to bend my body around those weird things! The Mum wonders who came up with these things anyway. Because they are hard for me to learn. Maybe I need some prenexa vitamins to help me be stronger so I can do them better. But the Mum says, we will keep trying, and I will learn soon!
So the Mum took some videos of my doing the weave polls today and she says I’m doing really well! Of course I am but I’m glad she thinks so to.
The Mum says that we won’t need any cheap insurance if I keep up doing so well! That I’ll stay young and healthy for a long time and do lots of fun agility. So what do you think about me weaving? I think it’s fun. It’s really hard though but I’m getting better all the time!
So the Mum says that I have to go and practice my weave polls every day in the back yard. She says that practice makes perfect. She hasn’t gotten any pictures of me doing it lately, so I’m putting up this one of my brother Chase, who is in MY bed, and he shouldn’t be. UGH. It’s my bed! Maybe I’ll go on some Orlando vacations and find a bed there that is just for me!
So but anyway the weaves are kinda hard and I don’t really get them yet. You have to move back and forth and back and forth and it’s really odd. And I’m not sure where is a good starting point either. So the Mum says every day, just like if I was learning to play the piano. And I don’t know how to play the piano but maybe it would be easier than the weaves!
Okay so this is the agility that I did a couple of weeks ago! The Mum was too sad about Angel to get it up before today.
Aren’t I good? The Mum says I should run a bit faster but I don’t really want to, I like it when she runs faster and I just get to chase after her. And the Mum says my tail is up and that makes her happy when I wag my tail. It was kinda fun! I was a little bit nervous but I had a good time too!
So things are getting back to normal here at home. The Mum and the Dad aren’t quite as sad now, but we all still miss Angel a lot. She left us a whole week ago already. The Mum says time flies, but I think flies fly and I don’t know about the time.
I went and did agility last week but the Mum hasn’t put my video up on YouTube yet. I did really well! I even won first place but it was still pre-novice so I don’t get a ribbon for it. The Mum has got to set up the weaves in the back yard so I can practice them but it’s been raining a lot. I bet the Ferrari parts will all get rusted, and so would the weave polls, so the Mum hasn’t put them out. I hope the rain stops soon.
The grass is getting greener here and it’s warmer, but it’s still too wet to have any real fun. I hope it dries up soon!
So the Mum says now that it’s warmer outside in the back yard that I get to do weave polls almost every day. Whenever she remembers and whenever she picks up the poop because we don’t like to do anything out back when there is icky poop out there!
So the last few days the Mom has set them up and I’ve gone through! And the Mum makes yumy Tuna Brownies for when I do it right! Though the Dad made them last time and he makes them better than the Mum does anyway. They don’t help me lose weight at all but I don’t need to I am skinny and pretty!
So the Mum says that I just have to practice them every day and then I’ll get really good so that I can do them without the guides she puts on. I need for her to get some video of me doing it because I’m learning them really well!
So I went and did agility again but I didn’t really want to this time. I won’t tell the Mum why but I didn’t like the jumps so much and there were people sitting around the ring. I swear I didn’t see them there last time, were they there? Hm I dunno. I can post up my videos in a little bit if you want to see them. The Mum hasn’t gotten them out of the camera yet!
The Mum really needs to get be Tuna Brownies or better treats because agility is just hard for this smooth collie girl sometimes! I’m gonna run off and find some Toronto hotels if the Mum doesn’t get me better treats next time!
So the Mum hasn’t been feeling well lately and so we haven’t done agility training like we usually do on Fridays. Bleh! I want her to feel better so we can go and play agility again. But then it is nice to have grass to do it on, and run on like me and Jet in this picture, instead of mud and icky weather. Maybe some Outer Banks vacation rentals would have grass instead of here?
I dunno. We don’t have any snow either, though. We just have dead icky grass that’s okay to run on but really isn’t as nice as comfy soft green growing grass!
Okay so have you had enough of watching me do agiliy? Of course you don’t! I am so good and have so much fun! This is my second run on Monday.
I sure don’t need any fat burner supplement to help me get around the course. I am so good and fast and trim! I look good don’t I? The Mum said I was even slower this time, but hey, I was tired you know. And I did have fun though. Look, you can see my tail waiving and waiving and when I do that it means I’m happy and having a good time. And the Mum was there and she makes me feel more comfortable when I can do the agility with her.
We get to do more next month, so I’ll have more fun videos then I hope!
So here is me doing agility again! Aren’t I just so good! This is my first run on Monday. I got to stay home on Sunday because I wanted to nap more than anything else. But then on Monday I was ready to go do some more. Though the Mum said I was a bit slow and really should kinda go faster… I thought hey, it’s hard to think about all those jumps and tunnels and things and so I really needed to think to make sure I got them all!
Agility sure is a good fat burner and I ran all the way around the course with the Mum. Aren’t I just the cutest agility collie you’ve ever seen?
Hi I'm Tatum and welcome to my blog! I'm a smooth sable collie, the prettiest kind! The Mum said a blog would be a fun thing for me to do, I can tell everyone how I'm gonna learn some things called agility, and obedience, and flyball.. and go on walks and play in the park and bark at the TV and lots of fun stuff!
