Jillity!

Ohhhh, what fun we had tonight!

Mom and Dad and I got in the car and went for a drive out to a big place with GIANT dogs with hooves. There were lots of other doggies there, too, including some I knew from Oh Be Dense and my furends Dara and Charlie from the Bark Park. But I wasn't allowed to play with any of them. I was only allowed to play with Mom.

But there were some REALLY cool big toys for us to play with, like ladders and jumps and tunnels and tires ...

First we did the chute, and then the tunnel. I was a bit afraid at first, but once Mom showed me it was okay (and waved my red tuggy bone at me), then I went through. The tunnel was sneaky and kept get longer each time, but Mom was always there cheering me on, so I was a brave doggy and ran through anyway.

The tire was probably one of the easiest ones for me to do. After the tunnel, it was a piece of cake!

Dad took some pictures of me at all of the stations, but it was dark and dusty in the training stable, so a lot of the pictures didn't turn out so well. (They were too dark without the flash, and with the flash on, the flash lit up all the dust.)

I love how they chose our groups, and that they put me with the other herding doggies (The Aussies and Border Collies group ruled!). Chase and I are probably going to be buddies, like his mom said, and I liked the dog in front of me in line too.

Mom and I really had a good time tonight. I think that Dad is worried that the dust in the stable is going to make Mom sick (she has ass-maw), but Mom doesn't really care. She says she and I are going to have a lot of fun at this.

Tonight she told me she was really proud of me for trusting her and trying all of the scary new things even though I was nervous.

I can't wait to go back next week! I love Jillity!
