I know this sounds funny but how do I speed up my BC in agility. He works cows has his CGC but I would prefer agility over obed. He is 2yrs old seems to love agility but gets ready to work when we practice. It is like he concentrates hard to not make any mistakes because he wants to please me so very much but we are slow. He never misses a contact, hardly ever knocks a bar, and never takes a wrong course because he works to slowly and close to me for any mistakes to happen. He is not food or toy motivated only wants my praise and love. Thats how he works cows and how he does obed. How do I get him to take agility as fun and less like a job he is doing. If this makes any sense to you guys he takes agility as seriously as he takes moving the cows around on the farm. On the agility course he is always at my side and even if he gets ahead because I am slow he will turn and come back to me or just stop and wait. I welcome any advice you have. I do think we will do well at trials but worry about making time. :eek:
