® Cover THE MAGAZINE FOR DOG AGILITY ENTHUSIASTS OCTOBER 16 PHOTOS © LENKA DUŠÁNKOVÁ, ISTOCK, CATHI WINKLES PHOTOGRAPHY 8 On Course with Anička Dušánková Anička is just seven years old and already an accomplished agility competitor with an impressive measure of determination and self-confidence. The Czech native has been at it for more than half of her life, since before she was four years old. By Sally Silverman VOLUME 22 58 33 Underfoot, Part 4: Our Second Look at Artificial Turf Artificial turf comes in many different forms; some with infill and some without, different types of backing, varying degrees of drainage effectiveness, different blade height, etc. By Brenna Fender NUMBER 10 Biceps Injury in Agility Dogs Problems affecting the biceps tendon are a frequent cause of forelimb lameness. Biceps tendinopathy is often seen in agility dogs and working dogs due to the repetitive nature of their sport or work. By Lauri-Jo Gamble DVM, David Dycus DVM Features 5 Editorializing: Why Did I Retire that Dog? Retiring an older dog when they are still running successfully and competitively can be a difficult decision, but retirement for your agility companion can be as golden for you as for them. By Erin J. Knotek 11 Power Paws Drills: Find the Entry This setup fits in a 50' x 50' area and has some easy as well as very challenging weave entries to practice. Plus learn about Nancy's new weave pole rule for her students. By Nancy Gyes 18 How to Train Legendary Lead-Outs, Part 8 Whether you are an athletic handler, slow handler, or physically challenged handler, long lead-outs can help your dog have a speedy and accurate head start on many courses. By Kristy Netzer 29 Team Small Dog Agility Humility: Bipartisan Lines in the Turf These are many challenges in agility we all must pull together to solve, not break apart and choose sides-even if someone on the other side got their dog from a breeder you think is creepy or used a reverse spin at the purple jump. Lift up the red, white, and blue curtain and take a look at what's behind. By Laura Hartwick 40 The Judges Debriefing An analysis, from the judge's point of view, of an AKC Excellent/Masters Jumpers with Weaves course designed for the Nashville Dog Training Club's January 2016 event. By Chris Dewey 44 Judge's Eye: Eyes on the Finish This month's article looks at how the some organizations treat the finish line as well as the premature exit of the dog and/or handler from the ring. By Cindy Deak 47 Canine Training and Behavior Q&A: Stalky Dog "Eyeing" and staring at other dogs is a common problem that can develop into a vicious cycle of reactivity. By Tom Mitchell BSc, BVSc, MRCVS 13 Novice and Beyond: A Survival Guide- Good Contacts Gone Bad The very nature of competing can, and will, erode many behaviors, not just contacts. There are ways to minimize the deterioration of a stopped contact performance and there are ways to accelerate it. By Sandy Rogers 22 Puppy Skills for Total Team Performance: Building Focus A few simple tweaks to your training patterns can create more focus rather than less, and setting up a puppy for success in all endeavors will build speed and drive faster than any amount of just "encouraging speed" ever will. By Frankie Joiris and Chris Ott 24 Sense of Self: Mental Game, Part 1-Failure Because mental game doesn't apply merely to sport, but rather all aspects of life, establishing and growing a solid mental game is actually vital to living, much less competing. Facing failure is a reality for all of us. So how do we actually deal with failure? How should we deal with failure? Is there a specific way that is correct? By Tori Self 62 The Construction Zone: Puppy Dogwalk Here are instructions for building the miniature dogwalk featured in the Puppy Culture and Puppy Party DVDs, which is a perfect addition to your puppy play equipment. By Jane Killion Columns 6 Tip of the Month By Deborah Davidson-Harpur 7 Everything You Always Wanted to Know About Agility... By Brenna Fender 27 Backyard Dogs By Dudley Fontaine 49 As the World Turns: The Twist The Twist is similar to running on the dog's line but is recommended when the dog is turning around the wing more than 45° because the handler's movement naturally cues the dog to change leads. By Mary Ellen Barry Cover Dog MACH2 Kips Valentine BN, CD, TD, VCD1, MXG, MJS, MXF, TQX, T2B, GCA, CATCH1 a.k.a. Kip, a 3-year-old Nederlandse Kooikerhondje rescue handled by Alison Studer of Ohio.
