That handler did an extraordinary amount of work getting him to this point. Our collie mix was never task driven so my daughter had a real job getting him to do agility. It could only be worse for a mastiff who must be thinking the whole time - why am I doing this?

Hats off. Clean weaves (the hardest thing to do) and only one bar. Don't worry about the time. Just watching him "run" was a real treat.

This one is well bred (versus many that can barely walk). A wonderful well trained dog.

He had one judge in particular (the one who he did his first trial under) that he had a weird obsession with. The judge even tried to hide from him behind a post, but Arlo sought him out. I always joked when the judge's name came up that we needed to go to that trial. My daughter was not amused.
