So we drove the 80+ miles yesterday to a little town called Plantersville to do some Splash Dog training on a regulation dock! Well Foxy did not come close to wanting to jump off the dock, but we did get her to go from the exit ramp and into the "scary clear water!" It was definitely hard for a lot of dogs to get used to the pool water rather than pond water. Some wouldnt even go in from the exit ramp. I feel like after a few sessions, we might be going off the dock if we go once or twice a month. Dock Dogs is also going to start holding competitions there after this May... soooo we will be able to do a lot of competitions soon. And maybe by then, she will be ready! It was a lot of fun, and when she understood what was expected of her, the joy just lit up all over her face and I saw that "drive light" flash on. She would charge up those dock stairs when it was her turn!! I think she is really going to enjoy this sport!!! It will be a good extra thing to be involved with when we dont have agility going on =) Anyways..on with the video!
