Agility Course mastered

I'm about 5 ft off the ground here - piece of cake - but I had to stop /pose so Gma could take a photo.
this is the same narrow plank - simple to run up/over/down
Did this one the 1st day - it's about 6-7 ft high - again - I had to stop/pose so Gma could take a photo.  Usually I just run it so fast Gma can't keep up me.
This one takes some coaxing  (treat in hand) but I can do it - have to work at doing it alone - I weave in/out every post and then go sit on the blue platform to wait for my treat.
This is part of the course from across the wash (dry river bed).  Gpa was playing on 'this' side of the wash so I had a hard time staying focused today.

I have the agility course mastered except for the tunnel - we're working on that.
I start by sitting on the blue platform and then run - jump jump jump between two poles as high as Gma sets the rail, run up the wood 'tepee' (its about 7 ft high), run up/down the stairs, through the hole in the hanging tire, jump jump jump more poles, run up the narrow wood planks/over the top/down the other side (its about 5 ft off the ground and 6" narrow), then weave in/out in/out in/out (with Gma's help) through the poles and then back to sit on the blue platform for my treat. 
Gma tried to get a photo of me jumping through the tire but I was just too fast and couldn't slow down. 

Today was muddy  from the heavy rain yesterday so we couldn't run very long and then I got to have a bath when we got home.

Nice job Scout. You must have some good trainers. I can not believe she is picking that up so fast. Great thing for her to use her mind.

Love you guys,
Ryan
