Scottie Islay in the Finals of the Qualifications for FCI Agility World Championships 2022

Islay and I had the great pleasure to run in the finals of the qualifications for the FCI Agility World Championships 2022!
Of course I knew that we have no chance at all, but I was happy about her eager to work and enthusiasm. We helped to enhance the breed variability and we enjoyed this experience very much!

The fact that you managed to train a Scottie to do all this is a massive victory on itself!

Лучшая в мире порода собак!❤🦴

I think I can say with certainty that it's impossible for a Scottish terrier to "lose" at such an event. First, there's the improbability of them winning due to the sheer physics of their physical size. Who doesn't like watching those short little legs leap over those bars barely off the ground? Everyone loves rooting for the under"dog". But perhaps most important, Scotty's are so damn cute giving it a go. People don't leave talking about the dog that actually "won". They go home thinking about and telling people about this adorable little black dog that didn't stand a chance but was trying its hardest to "win". Lose? IMHO, simply impossible. You show up and enter a Scotty, you win by definition.

Thank you for your kind posting! It's our goal to have fun together and inspire other people to practice some kind of fun training - does not matter what - but on positive reinforcement base - it deepens the bond to the dog and produces memories that are the most treasurable gifts we always carry with us.

@@agilityscottie Exactly right. I am thinking of getting one final pair to do exactly that with before I check out. 😉

Thank you very much. Wonderful performance. Scotties are persistent & plucky little dogs. Reminds me of our two scotties 60 & 70 years ago!

@@agilityscottie Hi, Thanks for asking about Libby, sadly she passed on December 14. We are so heart broken ! She was the sweetest 😍❤️🇺🇸

@@bretyoung1869 oh no... so sorry to hear about your loss, you are in our thoughts - it's the highest price we have to pay that dogs live just not long enough.

Yay for Islay! She is so beautiful and sleek! I got two new Scottish Terrier puppies three weeks ago. They are 11 weeks old, one is solid black and the other is black/brindle. They are brother and sister, and their names are Jasmine and Jasper. Both are quick learners. Good luck to Islay and mom.

The scottie hop is my favorite thing lol

I keep looking for Islay at Crufts!

[@agilityscottie]

That would be our dream, but it's not possilbe as the international invitation only invites one large dog per country

Does Islay bark during her competitions? Just like Hitch.
