World-Wide Agility Week!

In honor of Colombus day, we’re going to go on a sailing trip and take a look at agility all over the world! Today we’re taking a look at a Cuban breed that does superbly in agility- the Havanese. These dogs were very nearly extinct even in their native Cuba, but careful breeding has raised their numbers again into the thousands. They are making a big comeback! The Havanese are a steady, intelligent small dog that excels in agility. Take a look at the video below!

Note from Pam: For me, watching this great run along with the classical music arrangement made it look like a beautiful dance.  I wonder how much more fluid we’d run if we can “hear the music” in our heads of what we are doing?   Imagery is an important part of memorizing a course and seeing yourself running it smoothly, but I’ve never tried ‘hearing’ the course before.  Hmmm…. now I am curious about this possibility.   Thoughts?
