Since my brother-in-law took early retirement he
has become a very experienced agility handler with his two lurcher dogs.
I remember when he took me with him several
years ago to a practice session where I watched a teenager with cerebral palsy distance-handling his own dog on the agility course and doing really well.
Yesterday I received this YouTube link with no accompanying comment from my sister –
Thank you Sis!
I have several clients who long to take part in
sport activities and hobbies within mainstream life. This seems to me to be one
hobby that could be very suited, also to wheelchair users. I wonder whether
there are more people with disability active in agility distance handling.
If I lived nearer my brother-in-law I would
certainly make use of his expertise and I would encourage people with
disability with an interest in dogs to get involved. It really is a lot of fun
as far as I can tell especially when I hear the stories from my sister’s
family.
