Shows The Fun To Be Had by L. Lindquist
This book is great for a novice like me. Shows how to keep it ‘fun’ and not get all serious.
My dog appreciates me reading this one.
Fun with Agility by Car Girl
I really like this book - it is very informal and has great ideas. I just wish it had more information on how to make your own equipment. Don’t want to compete with my dog - we just want to have some fun and this book has been a great help.
“Fun” is the Right Word! by Pooka’s Mom
Since my main goal in Agility is to have fun with my Golden Retriever, Pooka, I thought this would be a good book. It is! Lots of great training tips and super ideas to increase the enjoyment for handlers and dogs. Margaret Bonham’s style is easy to understand, the pictures and illustrations are clear and encouraging. Maybe next summer Pooka and I will throw an ‘Agility Party’ for our classmates!
Downloadable Fun by Dana E. Glidden
