Grace, an agility dog-who knew?

Grace was SO GOOD at agility last night.  There was only one time she made a mistake and I am not sure my feet weren't directing her there. Every sequence we ran she did well.  Yes we re-ran a couple so I could do a better job, but my girlie did SO GOOD. My naughty girlie.

I did finally figure some things out about her though. She does not want constant direction. She wants me to shut up and just show her what I want not to tell her.  Last night when I didnt give her any commands beyond the GO to get started or a go on to keep going she didn't complain and bark at me.  She ran the dogwalk, she did really fast weaves. She stayed with me and was such a good girl.

Or, is she is setting me up for a big Gracie joke?

Edit-I just read this and now all I can think of is the KFC commercials with the "so good" jingle. Gracie, she is s o g double o d good!

Sounds like Sister Moira. All those years of battling her in the herding pens and she took to agility like it was nothing! Things I thought would freak her out - the teeter - she loves. That entire litter was incredibly high-drive and talented. Brother River is an agility dog now too.
