First Competition Outing

At 7 1/2 months Justin is too young to compete, but I thought he would benefit from attending the TVKC Agility trials held this weekend at Roane State.

At first being a puppy he was quite apprehensive, but within minutes Justin rocked the place. He learned quickly that dog people have cookies, and rather tasty ones! He wasn't so sure about the dirt floor at first but quickly realized that dirt was fine to walk on! We went shopping. Bought a new tug toy with a tennis ball attached and a new leash that matches my red boys coat. All and all I watched him blossom from a timid puppy to a confident outgoing pup that was having a ball. He could hardly contain himself. Self control is in our future lessons....he wiggled and twisted and about came out of his skin! What fun to watch him!

On the way home we stopped at a high school group's car wash. Justin met a special little girl with medical issues named Clair....he was afraid of her at first as in her excitement she would scream....but soon they were friends. We also stopped at a neighbors on the way home where he got to play with Shine, a two yr old Aussie that loves puppies!

A very big day for the boy! and hopefully just the beginning of many more!
