The Travelling Spaz

Spaz just fits in wherever he goes and takes it all in his stride. He has been travelling alot to trials and hotels - 3 days in Prince Albert for agility, a weekend in Lloydminster for a flyball tournament, followed by a weekend in Edmonton for agility. He is as quiet as a mouse in his crate amongst all the flyball commotion and agility.

He is improving in flyball - can now be off leash and run up the lane, over 4 jumps, pick up a dead ball and come back over the jumps (although he is dropping the ball). However, after a few repetitions he realises that there is excitement in the next lane but we are working on maintaining the focus. He has the potential to be FAST!

He is also doing well at agility - working on go's with target training, jumping, table and he is unfazed by the tippy board movement or ladder work for back end awareness.

He is apparently coming out of his shell at daycare and has found his voice - although he rarely barks at home, he is very vocal with his growls. It will be nice if he learns some good playing skills as he is still lacking those.
