The usual suspects were present and accounted for at tonight’s back-to-back Masters and Young Dog agility classes with Brooke Ortale. 7pm class student Betsie Bolger stayed to watch part of the 8pm class and captured this stunning sequence of a classmate’s dog weaving beneath a glorious Harvest Moon.
There is something special about CCS’ 2-acre field of natural turf at any hour, but it is downright magical to run agility there at night! 🐾👣
Betsie Bolger and Coco took their first agility lessons at Center for Canine Sports in 2016, “just for fun”. When head trainer Lisa Jarvis invited the fledgling duo to enter a trial at CCS, Betsie discovered just how much fun competing in agility can be! She currently runs 4 dogs — all small rescues — and is starting to train a 5th. In 2024, Betsie was inducted into USDAA’s Hall of Fame as Volunteer of the Year. When not running agility, she is a writer and editor and also co-owns an eBay store with her husband, Jon.
