PAST
Herding: I really liked it with Maggie, but currently I don't have a dog with that much correct instinct, nor the time and money to take the lessons I need to trial. I think it might be a "low impact" option for Snipe or Aeri when they are older, though.
Disc: I did one Toss and Fetch event with Kes and he had so much fun, but it's just not as fun as my other sports and competitions are few and faaaaar away here. Again, it might be something I'd do in the future competitively if it were easier to access, but for now it's just for fun with Kes and Aeri.
CURRENT
Rally: Ziva enjoys it and it doesn't require a ton of extra training, and it gives me a chance to work on my ring nerves and Kestrel's distraction in the show environment in a low stress setting. Both dogs are set to finish their RAs this weekend!
Obedience: I like the precision and it seems like a good offshoot from IPO obedience. It helps that the trials are pretty close and frequent, too, but we need to practice a bit on the Stand for Exam before I enter Aeri again.
Coursing: It's just fun. Kes is set to finish his CA and we will probably stop there for him as he always seems to tumble on his runs - he just doesnt want to slow on corners. Snipe will give it a try for the first time soon, Aeri and Z need a bit more training.
Barn Hunt: I love that all four of my dogs can do, and enjoy, this sport! It's low pressure and so neat to watch the dogs work out the course!
Flyball: I fell into this because Snipe liked it. Our first tournament is in just a couple weeks!
Dock Diving: Another one I find super fun that doesn't require a ton of time/training/special equipment unless I want it to. I love the people and it's really my favorite summer activity now.
Agility: This is the sport that started it all. It's gone to the wayside a bit since finding a class I can attend is challenging, but Z is soooo close to her ADCH and Kes is finally pulling everything together, so I'm picking up the trialling a bit more this fall. I think I'll always be addicted.
IPO: I really need to train harder to progress, but I love the challenge of the three phases and love the club I train with. The challenge it brings is really unparallelled, as are my ring nerves in this sport. lol
FUTURE
Conformation: I've always toyed with doing conformation with Aeri, but the skills are so boring compared to everything else I train, it always ends up on the back burner.
Nosework: I really want to do this with Aeri and Snipe especially, but it just seems like there aren't enough hours in the day to train for it.
