Paradise Park -- Aug 4, 2012
Great summer day for a hike on Mt Hood. Traveled from Timberline Lodge west to Zigzag Canyon and continued on up to Paradise Park, then retraced our steps back to Timberline Lodge. Something like 8 - 10 miles of hiking and 2800 feet elevation gain / loss.

Agility 101 Graduation : 06-Aug-2012
Well, Echo and I signed for, attended and completed Agility 101 - taught by by Amanda Gross of Absolutely Magic Dog Training here in Gresham. Must admit that Echo has a great time with the agility stuff, much more so than the Rally and Obedience practice that we do.
Not sure if we would ever be successful at it, but, overall a very good experience for him. He has to work in close proximity to other dogs, in a horse barn. We even spent some time between runs working on attention and heeling in that darn horse barn environment.
Here is a short video clip that Lynne took on the last day of class - clearly some successes and some big challenges to work on. Overall, class was a good intro to agility.
