In Memory
It's been a sad time for the Agility community, losing three much loved
people.
Ray Amps
sadly passed away at home after losing the battle against cancer. He was a
huge character who had been in agility for many years. His funeral will be 22nd
July in Peterborough. Since only 20 people are allowed at the crematorium, his
wife Val is requesting donations to No Gain No Pain charity.
Ron Miller (88)
was one of the key members of Tunbridge Wells for a very long time and an
important helper at a lot of other agility shows going back to when we had
manual timing.

Judges
We zoomed in on two of the judges in the Main Ring- Martin Cavil and David
Isbister - in an in-depth conversation about what it was like before, after and
during the greatest dog show in the world pre-coronavirus. And we've kept to the
2m rule.

This is just what we've been
missing all through lockdown... not. Run faster.
#ForeverBarkaway
Up until now, we've concentrated on training at home but
during this difficult time, what has
happened to our clubs and training groups? Since lockdown, Barkaway Agility
has made an effort to stay in touch with each and every member on a regular
advice. Members say that they are part of a community, not just a club.
Thinking Aloud
KC Online Dog
Show
The Kennel Club has launched a
virtual dog show to help get us through lockdown which has attracted more than
11,000 entries already. Best 'At Home Agility' will be judged on Tuesday, 28th

Coronavirus
Agility Picture Gallery
A week in the life
of the Agility community - social distancing, self-isolating and generally
keeping dog and human occupied. Thanks to everyone who shared their favourite
images. Stay safe.
 Diary of a Self-Isolater
- The First Week
Penny Heal admits to being in the self-isolating age
category and, like all of us, is having difficulty adapting to a way of life
with none of her usual activities. She's found it harder than she thought it
would be and did not have the heart to continue.
 The
BIG Question
Put aside your cares for a
moment. Other than the current current crisis, what are the
important issues of what, when, how and why of dog agility.
 Thngs
to do during lockdown
We asked for your
suggestions on how to survive these troubled times without training or shows. It
isn't going to be easy but our houses will never be cleaner nor our gardens
greener. Hope this light-hearted list will cheer you up in these dark
agility-less days.
Perennial
Starter Writes Again
Welcome back to Sally Jones, an ex-agility addict who
still can’t quite kick the habit after 31 years.
For instance, looking at her campervan parked on

 Clubs

Before groups
training starts up again, we'd like to update the list of
clubs on Agilitynet. Please let us know if your club is listed and, if so, are
all the details up to date. New groups welcome.
Agilitynet
Show Diary
Agilitynet continue to keep the agility community up to
date with news of show cancellations due to the Coronavirus pandemic. We have
decided to list virtual shows that have schedules until agility shows are back.
We are also optimistically adding 2021 show dates when available. Yes, there is
light at the end of the tunnel.
 Judges A-List
Even though most
shows for the next few months have been cancelled, this is a good time to
add your name to the Judges A-List or update your details. The shows will be
back and then show organisers will need you.
Agilitynet FB
Agilitynet FB has reached an
impressive 27,000+ members. Welcome to all new members. And thank you to the
dedicated Admin who have kept it growing.
The Agilitynet Shop
Since so many agility people now do Hoopers
with their oldies, we've added a new section for equipment and accessories to
The Shop called... Hoopers!
Flea Market
It's always a
good season to buy or sell your van, caravan and camping equipment etc. on the
new, easier to use Flea Market. We've improved our security in
our constant war against spammers. There's more to browse and even some puppies
under age of six months. And it is still free for individuals to use.
