I do like watching the agility competitions. They aren't on TV very often, though. I am often amazed at the courses that the dogs must compete on. I can only imagine how much training goes into getting the dog to follow the correct order. It must take time to get the dog over being afraid of the different apparatus, too.

Have you ever done agility training with a dog, Haopee? My Jack Russell would be good at something like this if she wasn't so afraid of everything. I'm sure I could never get her to run through a tunnel. I'd probably have to go in to retrieve her.

No. Unfortunately, we do not have agility contests in our place but I would love to check these out. I'm sure I would love taking pictures of these dogs in action. I'm sure my dogs would enjoy doing something like this too... especially with the treats they can get by doing it right.

Purebred dogs aren't as prominent here in our city as they are in the US so watching a dog show is like a treat.

Have you ever tried Agility Training for Reactive dogs? A friend of mine enrolled her dog in that course so as to desensitize the dog and help her recover from being anxious and fearful. You should check if your locality has one. I'm sure it will help your JRT.
