And you had to walk around the square ring (go figure that one out!)??
And you had to hold your head up – like you can really see anything that
way?! And you had to have your tail up in the air too? And you got
lots of good treats – like chickie?? Well, it sound like you are
going to do that again tomorrow – but not at a training class – at a
dog show! IT IS LOTS OF FUN!! But I have to warn you – if you
see Mr. Evil Rotten-Walter – look the other way! But you are
probably used to that since you live with Mr. Cooper Sir. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
