Is there any way to set some notification when there are replies to questions or comments on the Forum. I get a notification when the original post is made, however, if there are comments later, I don't get notified. Now, I have to go back every day to see if a question has comments on it. There are some very good comments that I feel I am missing because I forget to go back and check. Thanks. Sara

This past weekend was spent in the beautiful hills of Tennessee with Colleen Flam and Renee Ward at the Rocky Top Mountain K9 Agility trial. Karla Vialle was the judge and she set some really fun and challenging courses. She is super nice and very willing to answer any and all questions. Dancer was his usual social butterfly self, however, he did do some good stuff and I was very pleased with the weekend overall. The trial was outdoors on grass, however, the ring and the site are beautiful and everything was in great condition. I highly recommend you try to attend Colleen's trials if you get a chance. Dancer and I had a blast and are already planning to go back soon.
In addition to a NATCH 12 earned by Sandy Langan and Sammy and a V-NATCH 8 earned by Mary Cercone and Splash, there were several other titles earned at the March Laughing Dog Agility Trial.
Susan Barmby/Alesa Rylas - Piper - Sheltie - Superior Novice Chances
Linda Locklar - Joy - Poodle - Intro Jumpers Certificate and Intro Touch n Go Certificate
Alesa Ryals - Bree - Sheltie - Open Jumpers Certificate and Elite Tunnelers Certificate
Alesa Ryals - Pebbles - All American - Outstanding Novice Touch n Go
I'm sure there were others, however, they were not recorded on our brag sheet. Congratulations to all the teams who earned qualifying runs and titles. We are looking forward to our October trial.


What an amazing weekend!!!! Attended the Amanda Nelson Seminar hosted by Circle of Friends Dog Agility in Conyers, GA. So much information packed into so little time!!!! Amanda does such a good job getting the info to you and helping you understand how to use it. Dancer and I had a blast. If you ever have a chance to attend one of Amanda's seminars, make every effort to do so. You will be glad you did. Thanks to the COF ladies for bringing Amanda to this part of the county.
This time of year gets really busy with all the preparations for the holiday season. It's very easy to let things fall through the cracks. Be sure one of the things on your To Do List is to get your entries in for the Laughing Dog Agility NADAC Trial on January 28, 29, & 30, 2022, in Autaugaville, Alabama. It will be a great way to unwind from the holiday stress and have some fun with your furbabies.
