Run it for the money! 

Run it for the Money was the name of the agility workshop that Robbie and I attended today at Criterion agility.  We have been training at Criterion in Middlefield, CT since early this year.  Monique, who is one of the owners/trainers there, has really helped us to improve our communication on course and to cut down our yardage, therefore course time as well.

The Fall colors are about at peak in our area right now, and the drive to Ridgeland Farm where Criterion is based was spectacular.

Our Workshop was great; it was a series of many short courses to drill skills.  We left with a few things to work on; when the trials wind down next month we will have some homework for the winter months.

This video is the short “warm up” that we started with today…….then we all really went to work drilling skills
