Rosy, who we think is a greyhuahua (chihuahua plus Italian greyhound), is taking an Agility for Fun class at the Marin Humane Society<\/a>. Geoff brought the camera to last week’s class to try to get some pictures of our little athlete in motion. Lesson learned: with your average off-the-shelf camera, it’s hard to get a good picture of a quickly moving dog!<\/p>\n


“I’m ready! Let’s go let’s go let’s go!”<\/p>\n


Entering the curved tunnel…<\/p>\n


…and finding her way out. “It was dark in there!”<\/p>\n

Shooting out of the chute. (This one’s tough to appreciate in a still shot,
but she’d just pushed through the parachute<\/a> attached to the end of the tube.)<\/p>\n


Clearing the hurdle.<\/p>\n

Here’s a quick slideshow that shows Rosy taking a few of the obstacles. Notice how, after she clears the first hurdle, she changes course to run toward the woman holding the treat plate. Hey, this agility is fun and all, but a dog’s gotta have her priorities…<\/p>\n
