All three of our shelties do agility with our kids. Both the dogs and the kids LOVE it. It is so much fun to watch them run around together enjoying the sport. I hope that you love it too!
One of the first things we did in training with a puppy that will eventually do agility (you never do jumping when they are young) is to teach the puppy to look at you in the eye. You can have your daughter get a clicker and have the pup on a leash next to her. She can say "pickles" and when she looks your daughter in the eye, she should immediately click and then treat. This will get Pickles to learn to look at your daughter for guidance in the future.
She is so cute! You're very lucky. You live in a great area too. Does she get to run around a lot? Vizsla's are also very beautiful dogs. I hope that they get along. It's adorable when they adopt each other as siblings. Best of luck to you and your family!
