I hadn't been to agility training for ages. I'm sure it was months and months since I last was there and it was all due to the agility servant's mismanagement of life.
First it was the Queen's Birthday long weekend so there was no training. I always thought that I was the Queen and there were no par-tees happening here, so I am very suspicious about that excuse.
Then the agility servant started a new job and said she had a headache and was too tired after a long Monday to take me to a late agility class. What a tragic excuse!!! I start new jobs every other week, you know things like figuring out how to get the drawer to the fish food open or running off to network with other dog's at the off lead park and that has NEVER stopped me from going to a late agility class.
Then the next week it was an interview with the prospective pet sitters who are coming to live here while the agility servant goes on holidays. Well I ask you how fair is THAT! I miss out on agility while the servant organises to go away on a holiday without ME.
However enough complaining, last night I got back to agility training for the fist time in 4 weeks. How happy was I when the servant got my training bag out. Well just to give you an idea I got in some early agility warm ups by running down the corridor and bouncing of the front door a couple of times. The servant just rolls her eyes at me, it seems she doesn't understand the need for proper warm ups.
Then I stood up in the back of the car with my nose pressed to the window glass for the whole trip there. The car goes faster when I do that! I was sooo excited to get there and I just wanted to say hello to all the other dogs which I did, a lot.
We got started with the warm ups and all the excitement and running in circles got to me and I'd forgotten to potty because I was too busy saying hello to everyone. So a girl's gotta go when a girl's gotta go. And let's just say I had remembered to pee outside. It is of course the agility servants job to attend to these matters. I mean what use are they really unless it's for attending to the less fun but still necessary issues? After that I had a very enjoyable evening jumping jumps and eating roast chicken. I am still amazed at the fact that the agility servant will give me tasty food for doing fun stuff, but hey you can never tell what an upright will do.
I think that I made my point well though. It's really is best to stick to a routine otherwise surprises can and do happen.
