Vi gir hunder den tid, plass og kjærlighet vi har til overs. Til gjengjeld gir hunder oss absolutt alt. Det er den beste avtale vi noen gang kunne gjort.

M. Facklam

AUGUST 2004

We give dogs time we can spare, space we can spare and love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It’s the best deal man has ever made.

Success is relevant to coping with obstacles… But no problem is ever solved by those, who, when they fail, look for someone to blame instead of something to do.

Kanskje vi bør ha en annen definisjon på perfeksjonisme. Kanskje perfeksjonismebør måles etter hvor mye glede du og hunden opplever på de forskjellige nivåer av treningen.

Forfatter ukjent

JANUARY 2004

Maybe we should put another definition on perfection. Maybe perfection should be the amount of enjoyment you and the dog are achieving during the different levels of your training.

Om 20 år – uavhengig av antall seire og titler, det vi vil huske om hundene våre, er vårt forhold til dem, deres smil, deres tilbedende øyne og deres ubetingede kjærlighet.

Bud Houston

MARCH 2003

In 20 years, regardless of the qualifying scores and the titles, what we will really remember about our dogs, is our relationship with them, their smiles, their adoring eyes, and their unconditional love.

Konkurransesesongen er i gang…. Visdomsord for ditt første stevne: Agility er gøy, AGILITY ER GØY! Hvis du ønsker deg noe mer enn det, finn deg en annen sport. Verken du eller hunden din kommer til å bli verdensmestre. Ikke vi heller. Heller ikke 99% av andre agilityutøvere. Så få den tanken ut av hodet øyeblikkelig og gå ut på banen og ha det gøy!

Betsy Hyde

MAY 2003

The competition season is starting…. Words of wisdom for your first show: Agility is fun. AGILITY IS FUN! If you want more than this, go to another sport. You and your dog are not going to be world champions. Neither are we. Neither are 99% of agility competitors. So just get that out of your mind right away and have fun.

Hvis hunder kunne snakke, åh – hva kunne de vel si: “Jeg gjorde mitt beste, til tross for den dårlige føringen jeg fikk idag!”

Denne sporten er 90% mental og 90% svette

Marquand Cheek

JUNE 2003

If dogs could talk, oh, what they might say: “I gave it my best, despite the marginal handling I received today!”

This game is 90% mental and 90% perspiration.

Med riktig trening, kan mennesket bli hundens beste venn.

Corey Ford, amerikansk skribent

JULY 2003

Properly trained, a man can be a dog’s best friend.

Corey Ford, American writer

AUGUST 2003

Det er synd vi ikke kan lese hundens tanker. Ofte antar vi at hundene dabber av eller gir blaffen i oss, når de i realiteten bare leser vårt kroppsspråk, plukker opp små signaler vi ikke engang vet vi sender, og adlyder det vi ikke vet vi forteller dem.

Trisha Stall

AUGUST 2003

It’s too bad we can’t read dogs’ minds. Often we assume dogs are “slacking off” or “blowing us off”, when really they are just reading our body language, picking up subtle hints we aren’t even aware we’re sending, and obeying what we don’t realize we’re telling them.

Alle har alltid vært hjelpsomme mot meg, alltid villige til å ta seg tid og til å gi treningstips. Dette vil alltid være det viktigste i agility for meg og mine hunder: Dele med og bry seg om andre.

Forfatter ukjent

NOVEMBER 2003

Everyone has always been very helpful to me, always willing to share time and training tips. That will always be the most important thing in agility for me and for my dogs: Sharing and caring.

Author unknown

DESEMBER 2003:

Vårt liv er bare et speilbilde av våre handlinger. Hvis du ønsker mer kjærlighet i verden, må du gi mer kjærlighet. Hvis du vil ha mer kompetanse i laget ditt, forbedre din kompetanse. Livet vil gi deg tilbake alt du har gitt. Ditt agility løp er ikke en tilfeldighet. Det er et speilbilde av deg.

Forfatter ukjent

DECEMBER 2003

Our life is simply a reflection of our actions. If you want more love in the world, create more love in your heart. If you want more competence in your team, improve your competence. Life will give you back everything you have given to it. Your agility run is not a coincidence. It’s a reflection of you.
