A story told by Zoë 🐾

Oh, everyone, let me tell you something: I absolutely LOVE agility! ❤️🐾 When my mum and I tackle the course together, there’s no stopping me! We have so much fun, and the very best part is that I’m allowed to be a proper little dog. I can race around, follow my nose, and roll about in the mud as much as I like. Yes, you read that right: MUD!What could possibly be better? 😜

But now it’s time to get serious, because my mum has a plan. And when Mum has a plan, I prick up my ears and pay very close attention!

Off we go! In front of me is a wide plank that leads steeply upwards. Well, that’s easy-peasy! Up I go, quick as a flash. Once I reach the top, I have to stop and wait for a moment. See? I can be a very good girl, too! I wait until Mum gives me the signal. And then … down we go! Wheee! That was fun!

But there’s no time to catch my breath. The next challenge is already waiting for me. A narrow beam lies ahead. Now I have to concentrate, keep my balance, and walk across it as gracefully as a little tightrope artist. After all, I’m quite the athlete! 💪🐶

And then I spot it: THE TUNNEL! Woohooo! In I go, paws first, ears tucked back, and off I zoom through the other side. I absolutely love this part! Before I’ve even had time to catch my breath, we’re off to the next obstacle.

Two poles are waiting for me. And they’re not exactly low! I take a running start, focus carefully, and … JUMP! JUMP! Over both of them! Phew, that’s pretty high! 🤭 Tell me, why can’t I simply run underneath them? That would be much easier and save me an awful lot of energy! But no, Mum wants me to jump. So jump I do. A girl has to do all sorts of things for her beloved mum!
