My name is Weymouth's Scottish Brodie or Brodie for short. I am a 10 year old black Labrador Retriever. I compete in the sport of dog agility, as does my 7 year-old brother Weymouth's English "Tucker" and now my 3 year-old  brother, Black Sands Irish "Logan". My blog lets's me share our agility experiences. I hope you enjoy it.

Mom had us up at 4AM to make the 2 hr trek to Dream Park. I had the first run of the day, Ex JWW. I knocked a bar, missed the weave entry but had a good run otherwise.  

Logan had the next run, Novice FAST. He accumulated 57 points in under 27 second to Q and get a Third Place finish. The big news is that it also earned him his first AKC agility title, Novice FAST Preferred (NFP). Mom was thrilled.

NExt up was Tucker with his Open Standard run. He had a clean run, 10 seconds under time to give him his second Open Std Q....woohoo Tucker is back in form.

Then I ran my Ex Std course....I visited with the Judge, visited with the ring crew, missed my weave entry, but had a lot of fun.

Logan ran Novice Std and Novice JWW but did not Q. Tucker ran the same Ex JWW course I did but knocked a bar, so he too did not Q. Mom was still pleased with his run.

All and all not a bad agility day for the lab pack. Maybe next week I'' get a Q.

We had another CPE trial today. Mom originally only had Logan entered to use is as a training event, but decided to enter me and Tucker. Tucker had a nice day, Q'ing in 2 of his 3 events and earning his CL2-F title. WTG Tucker.

Logan continued to break his start line, so Mom pulled him off course 4 of his 5 runs. His Standard run was a nice run but he knocked two bars, but earned a Third Place.

As for me I only Q'd in Fullhouse. I was clean but over time in 2 of my events and knocked a bar and was over time in my 4th event.

Well, we get a six week break until our next trial in Mid-November...check back then to see how we do.

Tucker, Logan and I had our first fall AKC trial this weekend. Saturday was a good day. I earned my second ExA Standard Q with a Second place. Only one more Std and JWW Q for me to earn my ExA titles. Let's hope I can do it before the end of the year.

Logan had a great day on Saturday, earning his second Novice FAST Q and his second Novice JWW Q with a First place.

As for Tucker, he was very distracted on his run Saturday but did much better on Sunday. Unfortunately, none of us Q'd on Sunday. Better luck next trial.

We will be trialing next Saturday in CPE. Hope the weather is nice.

WOW...what a weekend. Mom had 10 runs each day. I had a great weekend getting 5 Qs out of 6 runs. Knocked 2 bars in my last run of the weekend.  Thebig news is that Tucker Qd on Sunday in Standard and Jumpers, both with clean runs...no knocked bars. Mom's conditioning program must be working.

Mpm tried Snooler and Jackpot for the first time with Logan and they Qd,  Logan, the speedster amongst us, did not Q on Saturday but went 4 for 4 on Sunday. He also earned is CL1-F title.

Mom came home with lots of ribbons. Our next show is early October. Check back then.

We had a month or so off, but we were back to agility this past weekend. I surprised Mom by getting my second EX A JWW Q. One more and I get my title, This was Tucker's re-entry to agility after being off because of his toe nail surgery. He tried hard, but was still a bit out of shape.

As for Logan, he had some nice runs, but no Qs.

We all did like the new facility, An indoor soccer arena. I love running on the sprint turf.
