AWESOME! My pug - the elder - Captain is so bored with agility.. I go out of my way NOT to "warm him up" so that I can make the most of his energy burst! Any hints?
and GREAT job! nice back crosses!

Beautifully done!!
Congrats!
My pugs biggest agility move is leaping onto the bed or the kitchen table to steal something. You are amazing!
Take care,

You would think so, but they're usually *more* wound up than usual from all the excitement!
Thanks
As to hints, Without seeing you guys in action and seeing you in training I'm not sure. I try to never stop them for mistakes due to speed....I don't want them to slow down to get it right. I definitely use "sibling rivalry" to my advantage, they watch the others train and can't wait for it to be their turn. I use food, but also special toys that they only get at trials. I never ask them to train, it has to be something *they* want.

Oh my goodness, I love love love how happy she is. (And those flying ears, can't get enough.)
Fabulous videos - I had a smile on my face the whole time watching your doggies having such fun.
We never touch people so lightly that we don't leave a trace.
That is great!! Congratulations!
I love seeing the videos of both of them!
