Barkley and I are just now starting out in agility. He is a little over a year old and is good at the sport, but he doesn't seem to be very hyper. Is that normal?
He may not be very confident right now. Dally doesn't really get too hyper, unless she sees her "agility buddies". Just be sure to constantly make it a fun game for the two of you--lots of treats, toys, etc., and LOTS OF PRAISE.
When you say he doesn't seem to be very hyper, do you mean he doesn't seem to want to work with you on agility, like he's shutting down?
