Don’t be late, ever-dog agility as a contact sport.



I am very lucky my friend Rob lets me run his dogs sometimes. Running big fast dogs is a whole different thing than running little fast dogs. And running REALLY fast big dogs, that’s this whole other thing.

When my timing is bad with Soja, bad things happen. Things can explode. You cannot turn late. Ever. Late turn and in the wrong position? Everyone head for the hills. Danger Will Robinson. Me and the dog should both be wearing full body armor. Even if I’m just late whipping out her toy to reward her. Too slow to get that tuggy in the right spot, and I pay, sometimes with my own flesh.

Or a pair of work pants.
