Fluke in 2009

Fluke will be 10 years old this year...I have no idea where the last 10 years have gone. So the plan for Fluke is to no longer chase after that third utility leg and to chase after the things that make him happiest...fun agility, ten ball retrieves in the field and jumping into the pool and oh yeah cuddle time. Tonight Fluke went to Stella's agility class because Stella is in heat so she could not attend. He was so happy to see agility equipment...mind you the last time he was on agility equipment was exactly one year ago and before that it was several years ago. Gone was the dog who stresses at the clicky clank of those damn scent articles and in front of me was my wild-eyed smiling puppy! He never forgets how to do agility...,just amazes me. The surface is perfect for jumping - it's just soft dirt so barely any impact. The teacher said he sure didn't move like he is ten! Right now he is snoring happily across my bed. My one true regret with him is never showing him in agility. Tonight reminded me to make sure we do an agility run every so often and keep him happy! He is such a GREAT dog!
