Description

Michele and I are lucky to trial in New England which is chock full of super agility stars. Many, even as much as half of the members on the Agility World Team are from here, so we naturally get to fangirl these folks. Meg McCarthy Cataldo is just one of those agility superstars and we brought her on to share with you. 
We learn how she first found agility from a TV segment to how she set her goal to make the World team, conquering it twice, but not without a couple of years spent taking the last place in tryouts. We learn about struggles with early take off's (ETO)  and how there is information out there to help you and your dog if you are having similar issues.
We discuss how and why the agility community so desperately needs to welcome newbies. 
Listen to Meg's journey into the sport we love, the lessons she learned and where in the "Worlds" she's headed.
