Thank you for all the advice.

Thank you all so much for your input. We have been trying everything. Someone suggested a shock collar, but I don't want to give him any negative reinforcement. He's a good boy...friendly with people and other dogs. He just seems to get so worked up when it comes to other dogs running agility. I think it initially begins when we arrive for training. He normally walks fine on leash, but at the facility drags me into the building. I can't even get him to focus on me. I did order the "Control Unleashed" book. I don't want to give up on him and pull him out of agility. He really loves it.

I'm in desperate need of help....my BC goes absolutely crazy while waiting his turn to run the agility course. I've had my trainer tell me to turn him around, cover his eyes, but he's impossible. He's so strong he turns back around and barks like crazy. I've tried to get his attention by trying to get him to do tricks or watch me, but nothing works. He is so focused on the dog running the course and I can't break that focus. By the time it's our turn I'm so exhausted from trying to control him. Do you have any ideas as to what I can do.
