I switched Prince to teacup agility because he can't concentrate around big dogs - he spends too much time trying to hide from them. He will not go up the teacup A frame. He acts like he is scared to death of it. The regular size A frame was standing along the wall and he ran up and down it without a problem. He even sneaks over to play on it. Talk about a brat!
I would do that in a second if they had a "teacup" agility up here. Up here, they expect Eddie to do the regular size A frame, etc. He does it, but I'm afraid it's too hard on his little joints. The worst part is the noise. He spooks when a big dog pounds up the A frame or the teeter slams under its weight.

I'm not even sure we'll continue with agility because of those issues. I'm just taking it one week at a time.

Thanks for the comments, everyone. And suzysmitt, yes, I was laughing out loud at some of the "outtakes" we had. It must have taken him 15 tries to do it right.
