Rally-Obedience Practice!

I had the absolute BEST time last night with Maggie in Rally practice – I just had to share!  Reminded me sooo much of when we did agility together 🙂

I set up a Level 1 course – Maggie hasn’t done a course since our trial the first part of May.  The first run, I did her first before her little sister, Haley.   Maggie been lazing around all day – she doesn’t like the heat and I can see it works on her more now being a Tripawd.  I know how it drains me…so I can understand why it would drain her more being on three legs vs. four.  

She did everything I asked but my ‘agility thinking cap’ came on and our 2nd run was awesome!  It’s funny how even in Rally I see the differences in how I run each dog….I’m more “up” myself for Maggie vs. more “calm” for Haley…same as it is/was in agility.

Maggie’s 2nd run was soooooooooo much fun!  She loves it so much when I really interact with her more and am not some sort of robot that thinks she should be doing all the work 😉  Then after, we tugged and played in the grass just the two of us with no tormenting sister(she was in the kennel being a good girl 🙂

We had a blast…yet again, made me choke up and glad she’s still here to enjoy playing together!

Enjoying a walk in the woods - no I'm not eating that stick!

Signed,

A very happy and proud Mother, Tracy,  to Miss Maggie Moo ~ aka the AgileCowDog 🙂

Maggie was diagnosed with soft tissue sarcoma on her left knee. She had amputation done on October 20, 2009. Four days after surgery she had a low grade fever and was off her food for two weeks! Trying times.. I am grateful and so pleased with how she is progressing now.
