Wow no one said Agility was an extreme sport
Just thought I'd let you all know that my Mom is a sook. Shhhh dont tell her I said that, she might get sad.  She has been moaning and groaning about no one telling her that agility is an extreme sport. Well whatever, I mean she should have figured that out for herself. I'm extremely gorgeous, extremely talented and extremely lovable,  so what's not to be extreme??But for some reason the large and beautifully colored bruise on her leg is the extreme bit to her. Its not my fault that my feet are hairy and I slipped while doing a sudden turn around the island bar while Mom was calling "close" and waving roast chicken at me. I did "close" alright, up close and personal with the chicken!   But I skidded doing the sharp right turn and side swiped my Mom and rammmed her into the oven. There are sticky outy bits on it called knobs and one stuck right into her leg. She said some VERY bad words  and hopped around on one leg and said things about corking and pain. I dunno I thought corks were in wine bottles. She got one of those out after the "incident".Well anyway, I'm still executing tight turns but we seem to practice more at the oval for some reason. And just to keep you up to date the bruise is lovely shades of green and yellow now much prettier than the purple and black it was to start with. Very decorative! |

| Dear Tiggy, I completely understand. Though I actually respect what's-her-name's space more than your average OES, like, say, my sister  , my agility instructor finally saw me in action and FINALLY understood why what's-her-name balks (or should that be bwawks, as in bwawk-bewawk-bwawk - haha, the sound chickens make????) at close work. Hey, we're bred to physical, up close and personal kind of working dogs. You try getting ornery farm critters with horns to move without give them a quick one-two body slam now and again I mean, I could use my teeth, but what's the fun in that? No finesse!Keep up the good work! Uprights are stupid enough to forget the bruises and keep going. No long term memory capacity at all. Love, Sybil, your long lost extreme sister |
| Dear Tiggy, My mom knows all about those knobby bits, too! I don't understand why my mom gets all flustered when I decide to zzzzzzooooommmm right in front of her and stop! I just want to show her that I'm right there with her and ready for my treat, please and thank you. She always ends up on her tippy toes and nearly falls backwards onto her rear; I think it's kinda funny! You should try that move, I always end up with my mommy having this stiff smile on her face and saying something about how I'm such a little sh*! as she leads me back over the jump. Sheepie kisses!

| Tigs, you are not at fault. She was the one waving chicken in your face while saying "close." You were following your nose and instructions. Good girl. Tell Mom the green and yellow works better with her complexion and hair, women love compliments. |
| Dear upside down cousin; what are we to do with these upright ones? They really have no idea how hard we work to keep them from acting foolishly. I mean can you believe mine was actually trying to run past the weaves without treating me one day? Of course a good body block was called for. And you should see them on sheep! they really have no idea what they want. Away, Go by, Stay - all in one breath  Again - a good body block is called for - is it our fault they can't stand on those two huge feet on the mud?I've had to call in reinforcements. I got them to take my brother to agility class Now when the upright one hs time ot play on th ejjumps and weaves n the backyard I get him going too. SInc ehe does not have the good breeding of a OES bitch, it is quite amusing. He jumps and snaps - all th etime looking for food she doesn't have on her. One of these days I just know he will knock her over - maybe into the scummy water garden that still isn't cleaned out this year. I wonder what will happen then, since my looney brother can't stand to see anyone laying down without him on top of them  |
| Thanks for all the good ideas guys!! I think I will be trying some of them. I have already sent my spotted dalmo brother off to obedience in my place last Sunday. Fairs fair, after all I get agility (much funner) and he gets obedience (snicker, snicker, I never was much of a fan of obedient myself) I think it made my Mom appreciate me more though. Rastus likes obedient even less than me. I wish I had a scummy pond, that sounds like it has great potential. Tiggy, upside down agility gerl (requires even more skill)  |
| Hi Tiggy Here's a great trick that has dividends. As your mom is running along side you, wait till she takes her eyes off you for a second, then quick move to her other side. As she turns to look for you, she will fall head over heals over the top of you, go splat on the floor...and here's the dividend, now you can shower her with sheepie kisses. Simon, the great inventer. |

Dear Mim we have matching legs at the moment, Syds mommy after girls in heat her legs are looking purple and green from one brain cell dead sheepie boy.  Syd says the chicken was worthwhile knocking mommy over, he loves a girl with a good appetite.   We need to compare injuries  I wonder if they sell thigh and leg protectors for the uprights ?   |
