Scar Scar the Agility Star!

Earlier this afternoon, we took Scarlett to the dog park. They just opened a new park about a mile from our apartment, so we've been taking advantage of it quite often! Funny enough, Scarlett doesn't really play with the other dogs in the park. She sticks with Michael and me mostly, but stops every now and then to give out a sniff or two! Since she refuses to be social, we have been working with her on the agility equipment they have for dogs. She is the only little dog that plays on the equipment, and she is awesome at it-well to us, she is awesome! Everyone comes by and asks us how we have trained her. It's simple really! Treats are close to Scarlett's heart, and she will do literally anything as long as she gets a treat out of it. I don't think you will be seeing her on Animal Planet anytime soon, but she is our little agility star! Ahhh...I need to get a life!

Here are some pictures of her today at the park!


Getting her attention with a treat of course!



Here she comes!


Michael holding up a treat :)!

The seesaw was the last thing she accomplished. She was scared of it at first when it started tipping towards the ground. But as you can see, Michael has a treat, so she has easily overcome her fear!


She loves going through the tunnel!










Of course she found something to roll in!





She loves her daddy!

After playing, we walked to the creek so she could cool off!





Such a happy girl!
