I've noticed that in the last few weeks that we haven't trained, she has been so much calmer with other dogs that we meet out and about everyday. I've spent two years modifying her dog 2 dog aggression and I've decided that this is really our priority - she needs to be content, not wired
She won't miss out entirely though, I made weave poles last year, we've got jumps set up and I just bought a collapsable tunnell that she thinks is the bees knees!
Who knows, maybe I'll get to comp level with my next dog **closes eyes and whistfully dreams of a time when Border Collies will fill the house, sigh**

HELLO,
sorry to here you have to do this, im sure your very upset, we had to Remove MY DOG From flyball, when she was younger as she would be very Naught there and Just Ignore me, But with Age she has been Brill, the person That Run the Flyball Club was the big Problem, she would just Wind my dog us to a point where i was unablle to Deal with this, even when i Ask for her to stop Winding my dog up She laughed @ me saying let her Be, BUT i pulled her from Flyball, and joind a new club, and ive never Regretted this, But @ the time it hurt me to leave, Keep your chin up and good luck with all your Activitys with your Dog.
