10 months? Are YOU KIDDING ME? Too old for agility?

1) Bun was THREE YEARS OLD (at least) when I adopted him from an animal shelter. He is now 6 and developed Addisson's disease in between. He has to date: OA, AXJ, NAC, OAJ, OAW, TBAD, CGC and an earthdog qualifier in AWTA.
2) The reining Yorkie Agility champion a la AKA is a dog named MACH5 (five times agility champion) Desmond Aloisious Shelby. He is NINE YEARS OLD!
3) It takes as much as YEAR just to train a dog to competition rediness. Greg Derrett a dog agility guru does not recommend weave pole training untill a dog is at least a year old!
