Competitive Performance
Notable
2003 was Ken and Echo's first year to be invited to GOG and they took home the gold in the Large Super Weave. Ken says he trains on his own. He sits down and creates a list of skills he wants to work on and then proceeds to go down the list and refine the skills. Since he trains other dogs, his personal time training Echo has to get squeezed in between his training class time.
Quotable
"For those that have an athletic background or aspire to participate in any kind of sport, agility allows them to go out and participate in that sport along with their best friend, their dog. They get to spend time with their dog and have a good time with it. Certainly we have exhibitors that aspire to win at the national level and others that want to just go out and have a good time with their dog on any given weekend."
