When I discovered agility in August of 2001, I thought it might be something new to try for fun with Violet and Holly. I joined the Goleta Valley Dog club and little did I know that six years later it would have become a major interest in my life. Holly was too old to take on this demanding sport, but for a couple of years she was a great supporter of her pal Violet. Now Violet and Holly are gone, but Violet blazed the trail for Cedar, who has been competing since December of 2006. Clover will start her official training after her first birthday in January. She already shows great enthusisam for learning anything new and enjoys diving into tunnels and hopping over low jumps.
I created a Web site for the dog club in early 2002 and still maintain it today. Its become an important part of our club where our 50+ members can check the calendar, read show reports from other members, find dog related links, and visit doggie photo albums of other club members.
