Today I participated in Sausage Dog Agility. As you all know, I do agility once a month at my training class but today was on a much grander scale which gave me the chance to show off my learnt skills. I loved the big course, it was much more of a challenge -who said dachshunds can’t do agility?
Having a look at the obstacles and learning the course…
Checking out the competition…
Here’s my new gal-pal Miley, what a sweetie, Mum was rather smitten!
Just checking to see if her treats were better than mine, they were so I put on the cute ‘puppy dog’ face!
Meet Dingo the demo dog, I caught him sticking his tongue out at me, I think he know’s we’re not pro’s like him.
So it was time to take to the course, I made Mum wait for me, she needs to know who’s running the show.
And who say’s sausages can’t fly?!
Here’s the other sausages practising their weaving…
And Miley taking to the jumps, she flies!
The lovely couple who run Sausage Dog Agility are also professional photographers from Four Little Paws, which is pretty handy when you need your best side captured in action shots!
Watch this video to see me whizzing round the course like a gazelle, ok maybe not quite that graceful but I’m still pretty agile for a stumpy-legged sausage!
And to finish the session, the obligatory photo of sausages and their handlers.
Dach’s all for now – off for a well earned nap!

Jeffrey you hero. 😀 That looks like Olympic standard agility to me! You never said you were so talented. 😉
Also, Dingo looks like a very handsome Toller, just like my Mac. <3 Tollers and Sausages get on very well ime. 😀

Hey Jeffery, Looking good in your agility class! I too have a lesson soon in August. Mum is making me practice loads any tips on the weave.
