Angus just started weave poles as he just turned 1 year and he is doing great....I am so used to training chihuahuas who take a bit longer :lol:

Here are three videos of him, very proud of him

Wow I am impressed if this after only a week of traing weaves.Like your chihuahua.I know someone who has the number 4 chihuahua in the country for agility.Squish.Neat and fast little guy.
 
That's ONE WEEK?!:eek2: Wow! You either have a lot of time on your hands, or Angus is VERY smart! I think he's smart either way.:winkgrin:
 
Yeah - If you look close the 2x2s are still offset a bit - about 4 inch offset, so that does help him see the line better. Hopefully by the end of the weekend I have them almost straight. Move them about an inch closer each day to straight.

We work about 5 minutes three times daily on them. morning, after work, and in the evening, just before dark. I have been working him hard, but he has great drive and motivation, so I don't think he is burning out at all.

He is a smart bugger though, he makes me look good and it is ALL him!

Weave Poles after a week

You shouldn't be rushing a young dog.Alot of people don't even train weaves till 15 months.Go slow with him and don't push him.
 
That's wonderful!
He definitely knows his weaves
Isn't that the beauty of 2x2 you can really layer training!
I agree with Sharon, no need to rush to a full set too fast :D
