Is there a February challenge that I missed?!
Multiple Dogs?
How do you manage training multiple dogs? Do you train one and crate the others? Have you trained dogs to do stays or something while the others are training? Or something else? Currently, some of mine are fit-pitchers and I train less because of it.

I have given up on trying to train a wait for the non working dog......one is in the house while the other one is working and then i switch.....less stress for me!!!
Westminster Agility is Live on YouTube Right Now!
If you want to watch some agility on the tube, check it out right now! I just saw a fabulous run by a rough collie doing Jumpers with Weaves. I think the prelims are on for a good chunk of today. Some other sports are on as well, I think. Let me know if and what you are watching. Stay warm out there!

@Charlotte Pertz many dogs face planting
How is everyone? Plus, the latest fight against spammers.
Hi Everyone! I hope you are okay with all the crazy weather! Here's some news: *This is the last week of the Parkour challenge! I've got one more dog's entry to finish. and then I think all of my dogs will have titles in All Dogs Parkour! I'm very appreciative of @Kristine Hammar giving us the opportunity to be led step-by-step through the creation of a Parkour entry, plus free registration in All Dogs Parkour. There's still time for you to enter! Check out the pinned posts. *I'm working on a February challenge that fits in a small space (in case your yard is snowy) and that maybe can be shot in one take or otherwise doesn't require you to label anything, since that's been a problem for some of you. *Skool is a growing platform, and with that growth comes a bunch of jerks who want to try to sell you stuff you don't want or need. I've changed the membership questions to try to keep them out. You can check those out in the attachment. You don't have to answer them, of course. You're already in! But if a spammer reaches out to you by messenger, please report them and block them. There will be 3 dots in your chat message that give you the chance to do that. Also please let me know about them and I'll remove them from the group. Please invite your friends who are real dog people to join this group! The link to see the group is https://www.skool.com/backyard-dog-training-matters-2491. *That said, I'm using this group to announce my dog-related offerings because it's my group and I pay for it :) Please remember that I have dog-sport-related coloring books on sale on Amazon and my author page is available with a new "easy to use" url: https://www.amazon.com/author/brennafender. If you'd go to that link and click "follow," that would raise my profile on Amazon, and it would really help me out. Thanks! *I also have a class for sale on Clean Run! It's a cool, unique course: Semi-Private Lessons: Individualized Help for Your Agility Needs. I hope you'll check that out! https://www.cleanrun.com/product/semi_private_lessons_individualized_help_for_your_agility_needs/index.cfm

This month has been so cold and nasty, looking forward to a better February and another challenge.
Weekend Weather
I'm sending good thoughts to all of you who are in line for terrible weather this weekend. Hope you all are staying safe! Let us know if you are having bad weather and how you're doing, if you can.
