Always good to have a plan B so you guys are practicing the type of run you want to have in the ring. More then likely things will be go just fine, and to help with your stress I know you know this but remember it is just a dog trial, there are lots of dog trials so try to not put too much pressure on yourself-what ever happens Marge is still a super star and so are you!!!! Maybe the time off will really leave you guys all ready for some fantastic runs!!!! I will be thinking of you and Marge!Kathy Mocharnukhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03029142726866533193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-45453602908473757102010-10-02T11:59:00.472-04:002010-10-02T11:59:00.472-04:00Go Team Smarge!

Just keep in your head images of all the happy times that you and Marge have had with agilities and I bet you'll do GREAT!<br /><br />Oh, and my mom has been known to take some of my l-theanine for herself! Haha! But she had to take way more than she gives me. Poor thing. I wonder if I need to start doing some counter-conditioning with her in conjunction with the l-theanine. What do you think?<br /><br />Wiggles & Wags,<br />mayzieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-10294751703765309422010-10-01T15:24:24.822-04:002010-10-01T15:24:24.822-04:00Keep repeating that it's all about having fun ...Keep repeating that it's all about having fun with your dog.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05100381901254968075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-28494271186579257262010-10-01T12:04:19.243-04:002010-10-01T12:04:19.243-04:00Yes, all too often I've joked about needing to...Yes, all too often I've joked about needing to be the one who needs medicated, not my dogs!

I think sometimes people over train and sometimes our dogs just need time to clear their heads like we do. Then, when they get out there, they rock! That's my experience anyways- so it's not all bad if you don't practice enough. <br /><br />I hope that if you decide to go, you're relaxed and have a good time and realize what agility is all about- hanging out with fun people and playing with the dogs we love :) Good luck to you and Marge, we're looking forward to hearing about it!LauraKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01106055832592897298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-61672629290676254512010-10-01T10:08:09.486-04:002010-10-01T10:08:09.486-04:00Marge is trying to tell you, in the best way she k...Marge is trying to tell you, in the best way she knows, that she's ready for this trial!Cyndi and Stumpyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15945219976457829612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-11131996212920889162010-10-01T09:07:12.372-04:002010-10-01T09:07:12.372-04:00I'm so glad that Marge is having an awesome we...I'm so glad that Marge is having an awesome week despite your crazy one. That says a ton about how far she's come.<br /><br />I found a relaxation protocol for people but it takes time... something which you don't have much of right now. Meditation is fabulous and simple, and even 10 min a day can make a huge difference (it helps me with pain management). But, I don't think that you really wanted to know about that!<br /><br />As someone interested in dog training and behavior, you'll be fascinated by how rapidly my dog R's OCD behavior has improved with a simple behavioral program. My vet predicted that we were going to need psychiatric drugs for him but now I don't think so. Amazing!<br /><br />Whether you trial or not, I hope that you have a fabulous weekend with your amazing girl!KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5768075887820301634.post-83563899997493756462010-10-01T08:37:57.119-04:002010-10-01T08:37:57.119-04:00Relax and have fun!

But there aren't many more outdoor shows this year, like you said it's a site you're both used to, and I think she'll enjoy meeting people like she has been. The entries are expensive enough, so you should be able to get something out of it.<br /><br />Good luck!!
