Here's a video I found on youtube:

And you want to see something hilarious? Watch the bulldog on this page (Day 1, video 3). It's great!

Thanks for those! I love the bulldog one - bless him! The pitbull is loving it as well, isn't he? It's so nice to see something other than a border collie on an agility course.

I know...as much as I love my Border collies (and want one one day!), they (and Aussies too I think) dominate agility. It's fun seeing something else, especially a bulldog! doing it.

yay Dahlia!
I was talking to a lady at the store who had Border Collie stickers all over her car (according to the stickers, they play flyball with their dogs...have you heard of that?) about agility classes, and she was laughing over her dog who always had this "what's the point??" opinion when it came to agility. She'd do it, sure, but always looked at her mom like she was nuts afterwards! LOL!

I've seen flyball. Dahlia's reaction to that would be "WTF who cares." LOL In flyball a dog leaps over a series of low jumps, pushes something to get a ball, grabs it in their mouth and comes back over the jumps. Then the next dog goes -- it's a relay race basically and they are FAST FAST FAST. Holy crap I've never seen dogs move so fast!

Check this shit out:

Dahlia could never move that fast in a MILLION YEARS.

Their feet don't touch the ground!!!

I know! They're like hover dogs! It's amazing how fast they can move. Of course, some of those agility dogs FLY through things too.

I also LOVE that guy's relationship with his dog. So sweet!
