Demo Doggies

Yesterday, three of us from Seamus's obedience class took part in the Piscataqua Obedience Club's obedience demo at York Days in York. The demo drew quite a crowd, and included a bagpiper to lead all the dogs and their handlers in a parade around the ring.

Once inside, we participated in a number of different exercises, including sit-stays, down-stays, figure eights, and greetings. Club members also performed some more advanced exercises and ran a sample rally obedience course for the crowd.

Greg took some pictures of us while we were performing our part of the exercises...

Dale and the blog-world famous Tucker the Chow demonstrate the "good boy" exercise. Yes, that's Seamus at the far left, getting his eye-boogers removed. That's an obedience exercise, too.
