And now for the happier stuff!
I've realized recently that I have like NO VIDEOS of Dahlia. I have a few but none of her doing agility stuff and none of her doing any of her tricks. I don't like to video tape myself but I've realized someday it won't matter what I look like on camera. I WILL want videos of my girl and I will cherish them even if I feel like I looked fat.
So...
I took her out to the park last night and got some videos of her doing a few agility things and some tricks. There are a bunch of them but they're all super short, so feel free to watch them all. Some are, literally, about 5-6 seconds long. And there's no sound. I got rid of it. Not entirely because I hate hearing my voice but mostly because it was REALLY WINDY and the wind sound was so annoying on the camera. You couldn't hear much anyway over the wind.
This was the first video I took and I thought about doing some serious editing. But here it is anyway. I'm so awkward when I know there's a camera rolling. This is the longest video because I thought Dahlia's staring at the camera while I talked to her was cute.
Here she is doing a sit pretty, roll over, and standing on her hind legs. Sorry I cut her head off in the last one. LOL
Dahlia doing an equal distance jump grid. You can see that I've set her up quite a distance from it. Normally people set the dog up RIGHT by the first jump but Dahlia needs to get used to figuring out how to run toward the jumps and pace herself properly. This was the best of the handful I videoed.
Remember those serpentine things I talk about? Here's Dahlia doing them! It's a nice closeup shot, no me in it!
And then I decided to make up a little sequence of jumps and run her through it a couple times. She doesn't do too bad! You can see how slow she is (lol) and some of her hesitation. But she took all the jumps I wanted in the way I wanted her to!
And one more video of Dahlia doing roll over. Do try to ignore the slobber.
