Relax yourselves, Dave is BACK!

In this episode, if i sound like ive been drinking too much wine, its because i have actually just come home from a session with the dentist! So please forgive my poor articulation!

Today we discuss some agility partnerships that have left their mark in the world of agility, and we are looking to find our top 5. Yes, we know mount Rushmore doesnt have 5 heads, but we found it hard enough narrowing it down to 5, so live with it!

Do you agree with Dave's choices?

Do you have some differing opinions?

Why?

Who did we miss?

I will be interviewing people in our agility/ dog training community, to better get an idea of how they think, what their opinions are, and steal some knowledge in the hope to be able to crush them in competition....Not really, we just have a nice chat Me and Dave Munnings have put together some questions, in the hope that everyone's answers can give you a different insight into the world of dog agility.

These will be interspersed between our normal podcasts.

This first week we are fortunate enough to welcome the world renowned dog agility competitor and trainer Dan Shaw .

Tell a friend who might like it, and let me know what you thought in the comments!

they bring you insights and stories that shine a light on the often unseen and un-talked about side of the agility ring.

This started off as a chat about life before agility, and ended up being a general chat.

Hope you enjoy!
