Riot The Border Collie Puppy Learning Through Play
They are only puppies for a very short time, so be patient about starting them in agility.
Riot is a mere 9wks old in this video and you will see how his handler keeps everything fun and upbeat.
You will also see that while Riot is learning agility, his handler is keeping him safe by keeping things low.
When working with a puppy you need to keep lessons short, full of praise as well as low with a focus on fun and play.
Do you have to start this young to have a successful agility dog? No, but when done right it can be a rewarding experience.
