It is just about a month from Cynosport. Everyone start looking at a plan for tapering your agility activities. It is true that many of you trial all the way up to big events and do well. However, it is best to go into such events mentally and physically rested (you and your dog). One suggestion that I have is to not trial the weekend before. I know this is going to create some discussion. However, the dogs that are competing (especially the ones with byes) know their job. They have muscle memory for all of the obstacles. If it were me, I would take 7-10 days off of agility and just let the dogs be dogs. I would spend time on fun conditioning activities such as hiking, swimming, etc.
