Sagira's first agility injury
Our training club had run throughs Friday night. We went just like any other time. Sagira was kind of tired because she already had Rally class before. Jeremy was putting her on the dog walk and she must have entered it wrong. Her two right legs completely missed the walk and she got hung up on it with her left feet, scratched her belly and got a strawberry on her belly and landed on her side. I was watching the entire time and had to cover my eyes, I was SO scared. She was fine except her strawberry and got right back up on the dog walk and continued with her run. She is such a little trooper. I am a huge worry wart though and now I am scared that she is going to get hurt doing agility. Is this normal for a first time agility dog mom to worry?

Hi Sagira and mommy!
ReplyDeleteOoohh..that must've hurt! Hope you get well soon!
YOU GO GIRL!!!

Ouchie - that looks sore. We don't know anything about agility so no advice from here. But that sure brought out the sibe in her - typical stoicism.
ReplyDeleteHope she will be OK and Mom too:)

Yes, it's natural to worry. Yes, they all fall at some point. I see them fall now and then at school. the important thing to do is get her right back up like it's no big deal. not to fawn over her. (tho you want to, it will just reinforce that the thing is scary).
ReplyDeleteeven if you decide agility is too dangerous, it's important for her not to be afraid.
you did good! really. glad she got back up!

My wife says they've had a few dogs fall off the dog walk, especially new dogs, but they go back up. We're sure Sagira will be fine!
ReplyDeleteI don't do agility but I'm a sporty guy who chases my frisbee and tennis ball in the fields. I regularly get pawpad injuries from sharp stones. What can you do? They heal! You'll be just fine, Sagira!

Sagira and Mom, sorry about your boo-boo! But you seem like a trooper. Just be more careful next time! Yes, mom, it is normal for a first time agility mom to worry. You just need to make sure Sagira is not scared of the dog walk next time she does it, (from the fall), make sure she gets plenty of rest between rally and agility too. Don't overdo it. She is such a beauty of a dog, she will be fine. Give her a kiss from Josie too. Woof!
ReplyDeleteOh Bummer Sagira....I am so impressed that you got right back up! WOW...you are a trooper! As for your Mom worrying, I think that is only natural for a Dog Mom to do....assure her you will be ok.

Oh poor baby - we hope you feel better soon Sagira. But it sounds like she took it well - like when a little kid falls and is bruised but just keeps going. You are just like every other mom out there - just like we all would be! We are sure she will be ok.
ReplyDeleteOuch! Hope your boo boo is better today!
