Welcome to a blog about my experience as a dog owner. While I intend to focus on agility, that will by no means be the only topic!

And This Is Why You Listen To Your Dogs

We spent a long weekend up at the lake, enjoying the cool weather and quiet. We got home a bit late, so it was dark when we parked the car. I got the dogs out of the back, and Daniel went to throw the trash into the dumpster.

As soon as the dogs hit the ground, they got all excited and lunged towards the dumpsters. I told Daniel to stop, and tried to see what had the pups all excited.

I saw a furry black face.

"Is that a cat...? Nope, it's a skunk! Back off!"

Daniel got away clean, and the skunk went back to rummaging through the trash. I hauled in the dogs, and we skirted the far edge of the parking area.

And thus, the dogs saved Daniel from a skunking.
