not "real" agility, just having fun since we had a warm day finally. It was really windy too, after I bathed her it only took her a few minutes to dry. That is insane, it usually takes her forever & a half to dry!

Anywho, I am going to start with some pics from a few days ago:


Sleeping beauty. <3



See how dirty she was? lol



"Hai there people of the internetz!" "I dunno why hoomins like dis computer stuffs, it sure iz stoopid if ya ask meeee."



Ok, Bath pics next:



Lacey-roo the pointing Collie mix. She is my #1 dorkus. :p She is for real pointing, there was a bird in the bushes.



"Does mah booty look big?"






Soggy doggy.



Trying to figure out the wind... trees/leaves blowing. lol

Why no nomz???



Niiiiice Lacey.



Thinking dog, she looks like she is taking in the scenery.









This may be my fav out of this set.




Ok, next pics are of her jumping our pitiful jumps lol. I do not do this with her on a regular basis, she isn't 2 yet. Its been a few months since I had her jumps out. This is the first time she did jumps with no treat rewards, yay!



Whoooosh!

I love how stupid my camera is. The darkness in the corners is from the camera being wonky, the plastic that closes over the lense when you turn it off... it does this.






Her ears look tipped lol



Look ma, I can lick my eyeball AND jump! Woooo!



A tired dog is a GOOD dog!



DONE!

I don't think she could look any happier than when she's jumping over that jump. It's just a look of pure joy with some tongue added in. Love the ear tipped picture

She is such a pretty girl and it's a good thing she's a girl because she sure looks it. I love how thick her white neck ring is and her color is so rich. Love her

Lacey is just stunning! Goofy of course, but who doesn't love a goofy dog?

She makes jumping over a pole look like fun!

Aw thanks everyone!

I can't wait until she is fully mature, her hair keeps filling out and overall she just looks better and better as time goes on! She looked way different as a puppy, her tail wasn't even poofy.

Linds I thought about that too, it would be sad if she were a boy... she looks 100% girly with the hair, build, and long skinny legs. I named her aftr her ears, they look delicate like lace. ;)

She doesn't handle warm weather at all, it was only 71F outside and she panted the whole time. I trimmed her last summer because she couldn't handle it... but she didn't have so much glorious hair. Ugh I really don't want to cut that hair, I hope she can tolerate the heat this summer. our summers are usually in the upper 80-90s, with a few days over 100. Lucky for her it is in the 40s today, pics are from yesterday.

I know someone is going to ask lol, this is what I have holding the jumps up:



They are sign stakes, but they make wonderful jumps. They are somewhat flimsy so if the dog hits the jump it gives in and bends (they don't bend out of shape, just flex). They were $2 if I remember correctly. And they are easy to adjust, just press them farther into the ground if you want them shorter.

In my pics the jumps look taller than they were, one is 7ish inches guessing and the other was a little taller. About up to Lacey's elbow.

I had to dig up some baby pics to show you guys:




She had really short body hair, no leg fringe, and her tail had short hair.






And here are a few from when I trimmed her hair last summer. I did NOT want to do it, I felt like I had to. She was so miserable when we went outside, she wanted to play but all she would do was lay there and pant... then ask to go back inside. I think I did a pretty good job, this was the first time I had cut a dogs fur and this was with scissors! It took about 4hrs for me to finish:



Collie dog feeling like a greyhound. :p



It was a little choppy by her neck, not that bad though.



Her chest was weird looking lol.

I actually love the 'darkness' around your pictures.

And she's adorable, post more pictures when ever you'd like. ;)
