Our first agility trial

Jeremy and I attended/worked our first agility trial. Our training club hosted an AKC trial this weekend. Sagira couldn't enter since she is a mixed breed dog but we wanted to go and check it out and see what a real trial was like. It was a great learning experience for us. Some of these dogs were just amazing. We saw three people earn a MACH this weekend. The first one I saw gave me chills and made me tear up a bit. I have such a huge appreciation now for those who are able to compete and earn these titles, it involves so much time and effort.

The trial ran really smooth. The organizers from the club did a GREAT job. They were so nice to those of us who have never been to a trial before. They were sure to teach us the ropes and let us help out as much as we wanted to.

We are looking forward to Sagira's first NADAC trial next month even more now.
