Once he (and I) gain some confidence, focus,

dog.

Can you squeal like a little girl?

Given the right conditions and stimulus, sure. This isn't the
group for that kind of discussion, though.

The biggest problem I have
teaching agility to grown-up men is most's inability to display
to their dog what a good time both are having.

Despite my flippant answer above, I do know what you're talking
about here, and am working on it. The more I do this, the more
I've come to start understanding that quite a lot of this is the
ability to connect with and communicate with the dog....
