Wow, ok, then that's amazing.
I have stewarded and worked agility trials, and I started training agility, but our little club died out and I never got back into it. They have a group here, and I do think when the puppy is a little older, I will have a go with her. I sure won't be able to do much hunt training down here, with the alligators!

We have guys who come up to our hunting retriever club from S. GA and Florida to find some alligator-free water. I don't think my girl would like retrieving half as much if she didn't get to get wet. All that hair slows the Goldens down, but they don't seem to enjoy it any less!

Is your local agility group USDAA, AKC, or NADAC? Our group is primarily USDAA, but we run in all associations. I've never run NADAC, but Shelley is one Q short of her Excellent titles in AKC and has her Agility Dog and Advanced Jumpers titles in USDAA. If we ever start running NADAC we ought to breeze through the Novice level . . .
