Around the dog agility blog-o-sphere!

We got a little behind in sharing some dog agility info, tips, sites and more. Some of this info you may have found already, but anyways...let's get to it!

Silvia came out with her Summer tricks video, love it! (There's also a new vid of the Labubi Drum Band :)


We ran across this great list of FCI and World Championship winners from 1992-2008.

Our friends Hugo and Kissy from Portugal had some fun with a box last month. I think they like playing with boxes as much as we do!

The IFCS 2010 website is up and running. The 5th IFCS World Agility Championships 2010, May 14th – 16th, 2010, Hand Equestrian Centre, Clevedon, North Somerset, BS21 6TG, United Kingdom.

Check out some of these runs with Silvia, La and Bu. Very interesting discrimination work, and turning after a running dogwalk.

Surfing around we found this great site Spass-mit-hund (which in German means, Fun for Dogs). They have a lot of cool, fun ideas on how you can have fun with your dog doing tricks and utilizing everyday items for interesting play. Here's the German translation. If that doesn't work, go here :)

If you haven't yet seen the new Running Contacts blog, check it out. It's got clips of lot of folks utilizing a variety of techniques to teach running contacts.

Here's another little trick vid from we believe Sian Davies from Scotland. Mostly basic tricks but we picked up a couple of new ideas. Check out her YouTube channel for more.



Here's a clip from Rachel Sanders's CRIC presentation on The Pre-Sports Puppy. The complete DVD is available from Clean Run.
Clean Run has a great article in their magazine article section - it's The Ultimate Doggie Swimming Hole - I want one!

There's a new UK Dog Agility Magazine. Here's the website. Looks like eventually they may have some great little articles from some top European competitors. Keep an eye out.

Special thanks to aurea.userworld.com for finding some of this info for us to share.

More info on this weeks European Open coming in the next day or so, stay tuned!
