We did a workshop today and towards the end of the afternoon, when we came to the start line playing excitedly with the stuffie as a tug toy, I took off the leash, and put it and the stuffie carefully and slowly down beside my pretty amped-up dog. I backed away, asking him to wait … and when I released him, he ducked to the side, grabbed the stuffed pooh-bear, and carried it over the first four or five obstacles of the course.
It made him a bit slow, but oh, my lord, cute beyond words.
